    Norton A275 600 grit..

    I dont know if anyone had ever used these 600 grit sheets before but I bought some and used them wet, not sure if they are meant for that, but I think these are better than the 600 grit 3m wet sheets. They get really soft and seem to fold much easier when sanding in tight areas by hand with no...

    Looking for a clean/bright pearl white

    I've done a few white pearl jobs, and used SPI white with various mid coats on top. This customer is looking for a factory color though. I like some of the Lexus pearl white colors. Anyone have any others that they might like. Looking for something that is bright and doesn't look yellowish?

    1977 Firebird interior color code..

    I am looking for a paint code for the Red used on a 1977 Formula. I don't have any parts clean enough to get a paint sample from, so that's not an option. I have searched online, but I cant find anything definitive on a correct code for this particular red. I assume its a pretty common red...

    Moisture pimples?

    So I have had this issue with spi 2K sealer. So just to make sure it wasn't a product issue, I sprayed another brand sealer over the weekend and I had the same effect. My phone camera kind of sucks, but its basically just like small dust nibs all over the parts. The only thing that makes me...

    Heavy duty cleaner

    Is there a foam cleaner out there that would work good on really caked on oil and grease? I mean heavy shit... I am looking for something(if it exists) that I can spray on, let it sit and then power wash off. Then I would proceed with the dawn soap routine.

    SL-C Super Light Kit Car

    Why not a project thread! Lots of cutting and fitting.. This body fit like garbage, but the relationship between the builder(manufacturer) and the owner fell apart so im sure they just tossed all this stuff on and kicked it out the door. But the adtech filler seems like a really nice product...

    Carbon Fiber overlay..

    So I want to over lay a piece of carbon onto a part, and the base color had to be black. Would it be better to just lay a few coats of black epoxy down, then sand it it and resin the carbon down or should I black base/clear it and prep that surface. I feel like epoxy would be the best bet on...

    Sea-Doo Repair

    I've never repaired any type of watercraft, but I have a long time customer who asked me to patch this up real quick for him. Can I just grind this out, use some West system epoxy resin and matt then finish it off with the p17 filler? Its just a quickie job, but I still wanna do it right. And I...

    Lighting question.......yep another lighting thread..

    So the annual time has come to slop another fresh coat of paint on the walls and frankly im tired of the wall lights. Do you think they have any real benefit? I was thinking of moving them all to the corner of the wall/ceiling area. They just collect a lot of dust and overspray directly on the...

    Paint thickness gauge..

    So for years i have always been curious how much paint I take off when wet-sanding. I have no idea how accurate this will be, but if its consistent I can at least monitor the before and after wetsanding. I get aggressive with the 800 and hell sometimes 600 when going for flat panels.. Ill report...
