Oh, when I was in the Corvette Camaro world my best friend had a world class shop and was contracted by the Corvette factory to find a solution to the bad peel issued and thus Corvette rebuild and entire new paint shop. I worked with him to restore Corvettes and learned so much about old vs new...
Since you were a painter back in the 80's you had to be painting i Solvent-based enamel or lacquer paints, that contained high VOC (volatile organic compounds) content, that many cars still used single-stage paint (color and gloss in one layer), as water base urethanes were not really used at...
Does anybody have photos of the interior of a Race Red Exterior with Space Grey interior, especially close ups of the seats and inserts. Would love to see how some have modified the Space Grey interior.....CHEERS
So what did i learn from this post? Person asking for advice was provided several options, but what does a car wash have to do with how long before you can wax/polish a new car? Hostilities exchanged on subject has nothing to do with wax/polishing a new car. Focus on the questions and provide...
I highly recommend using a Carnauba wax, hand applied and hand removed for the first time. THis wax is a very hard wax that give a very reflective shine, and protects for over three months. Once you put a nice coat on, finish it with a mist. Use a nice cloth applicator, and micro clothes to...
I bought one today. I never close myself off until I experience it myself. Got it at Autozone, about $14.00. Will try it on my Dailly Driver first. Will let you know in future what I think.
I think I will stay with a good car wash, water, and a clean micro wash cloth. I used some of this waterless car wash and did not have really good results. I like the water cannons that give you a nice soapy base and good rinse with a soft water absorber dry cloth. Just feel I have much...
First, solar for trickle charging is a being your choice, before you buy consider this:
Solar chargers only work when they receive sunlight.
Cloudy days reduce output
Short winter days reduce charging time
Parking in shade or a garage may produce almost no charging
During time not charging...
Yes, the dealership disclosed up front only fees collect, less tax, registration etc. is, I believe $250, as the X-Plan fee went up from $100 to $250. No other fees. I knew about this before i went in, Sarasota wanted to charge me $1200.00, that is why I said goodbye to Sarasota.
You are correct, go to Ebay and you will find may for very low prices. I found when you spend a little more you get better material and fit. I would never spend over $500 for a Chin Spoiler. Most street cars do not need specialized spoiler, even if you just go to the track on occasion, your...
Oh one other thing, carbon fiber used as a Chine spoiler will crack and split if hit with curb or road hazzard. Trust me I have fixed many with duct tape and repairing them. So abs might be little better to absorb the curb, but eventually it does dry out and becomes brittle too. So not saying...
I come from the Road Race World, and every ounce you save is imperative for the race car. So my perspective so you are correct from the world of every day use. However, carbon fiber used for visual is like everything else moderation. I personally will be installing a front chin spoiler in...
