MilesFox Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I was told that epoxy primer is best for plastic and fiberglass. And also, you will never be able to paint laquer auto paint over acrylic spray paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Abides Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 What do you guys use to restore the black on moldings and bumpers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
987687 Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 What do you guys use to restore the black on moldings and bumpers. Heat gun, I did a test. Back to black on the left, nothing in middle, heat gun on right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted May 18, 2011 Author Share Posted May 18, 2011 What do you guys use to restore the black on moldings and bumpers. Heat gun works ok, but I use Mothers Back to Black. It soaks into the rubber/plastic and restores them and protects them. Give it a try, cause Ben, you know what my car looks like and how I keep up on it, so I'm not BSing ya.

TheLoyale Posted May 24, 2011 Author Share Posted May 24, 2011 As of today, I am replacing the rear axles boots. I have'em, and pop all 4 roll pins out, but now I need to devise a way to get the axles off the stubs, they are stuck. I also took the mastash bar off to restore it and add a little suprise.

jboymechanic Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 I like it. If you are worried about exhaust under the car (I wouldn't), just put a simple down-turned pipe end on and you'd be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm not really worried about it, as I have sealed upon sealed the entire underside with so many different products, including Fiberglass resin, coated with POR-15, then tractor enamel, then POR again, then NAPA rubberized undercoating, then NAPA Stone Guard (Hard rump roast paint) then tractor enamel again for the finale coat.

jboymechanic Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Jon, did you get the Brighton already? Planning on getting it on Sunday. Going to my friend David's cookout that night near Fox, gonna get it then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because all i hear is people complain about the low amount of light omitted buy the factory lights, and i was thinking your going to put those on and possibly block even more. But yea for shows would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you wanna keep something precious, go lock it up and throw away the key. If you want to hold on to those possesions, don't even think about me. So, you type **** like that.
