I have tried to log onto that site for about 6 months and it says my password is wrong even when they email me a new one. The only thing I ever got good out of that web site was learning about spi.

Hopefully this is legible.
Try and help some and others have to act like pricks.

larry , that guy is no painter. he knows very little to nothing about paint . he's like one of those morons at hr that spew all their anti spi crap because they used cheat junk and no one was impressed. anyone who starts that stupidity about not mixing brands is best ignored.
he's a good example why that site is so dead .

Hey shine, I know the guy is an asshat. It just pisses me off to try and expose others to the great products Barry sells. If I hadn't read about SPI on the Hr site, I would still be getting raped at PPG.
I try to pass the favor forward, but so many hve either their heads stuck up their asses, or they know no better and believe that bigger has to always be better, or that whatever their buddy said is right.
Oh well.
btw, the guy who owns the website, he lives in Terlingua, lives completely off grid.

This is the main reason this is the only paint forum I will come to anymore. Too many keyboard assholes who 9 times outta 10 would say something different when talking in person. Just way too much misinformation out there and I don't have the time or the patients to sift through the bullshit. I know who to trust on this site.

As usual I can't remember who posted it but Earl's (any relation to Scheib?) comment was posted before. He has a web site of his own (http://www.ranchero65.com/) showing the kind of work he does. He starts by stripping the paint off a Falcon-based Ranchero -- on a pretty steep driveway.
Then he decides he needs a garage. When he's done building the garage, it's too small for his tools AND the car so he adds a similar-sized portable fabric garage to the back.
His "Single System" includes Zero Rust, brushed on over rust, bare metal and gray stuff he thinks might be POR-15. The brushed-on Zero Rust is for hidden stuff like the floor pans and engine compartment. He uses Dyna Weld to glue a fiberglass scoop to the hood, squishing some fiberglass into the second layer of Dyna Weld for strength and to prevent cracking. After recommending a flexible putty like Poly-Flex putty, he actually uses Evercoat Rage Gold and UPC Icing. Final step on the custom hood is to add flex agent to the primer and finish paint because fiberglass bonded to metal causes flexing and eventually cracks. The important stuff, like the body panels get primed with Kirker Euro epoxy primer.
The last post in the story is a mystery, pictured here, with the caption: "Uh oh...back to the drawing board...". It appears he had a horrible accident that not only crumpled the front end but also exploded the rear of the Ranchero, turning it into a Falcon station wagon.
It's actually a good thing that Earl would never use SPI products. Even though Barry is the friendliest, calmest, most patient and helpful expert I've ever talked to, I am absolutely sure he would use his new high-tech phone to reach through and choke the life out of Earl during his first "Let me tell you what I think" call.

perfect example of some fool using a bunch of marketing hype junk then getting all butt hurt because people who know what they are doing call him on it. just like the trolls who use summit or eastwood and think they are using something special. i have watch one after another pro leave web sites because of them. you cant fix stupid and arguing with stupid is just wasting good air .

I see "Earl" is from down south... as in southern Oregon. I grew up here in 'Orygun' and we have a slang for that neck of the woods. Goat Ropers... understanding that individualism is strong in Ore. and some people excel at it.

they banned me from the paint and body forum, still have access to the rest of the site. Don't know but I think the moderator for that forum did the deed. The site owner just posted a warning to follow site rules.. Who ever banned me didnt have the balls to tell me,LOL.
There are a couple guys on that site that have their shit together, but for the most part it is guys who like their cars that cant really fix them and truly need some good info and guidance.
I tried, I failed.
Goat ropers, made me laugh. that was my cousins CB handle back in the day. He had lived in Eugene OR prior.
