So I have a 2002 Dodge Cummins dually that I got for free. Truck is mechanically in great shape but the paint is challenged but primarily in a few areas.
The roof is having the clear coat fail and there are a couple small spots where it is starting to rust on the doors and fenders.
I...
Thanks a million for the advice Mike. Do you thin the SIP on and orange pad is to aggressive for Porsche paint? White pad instead?
I don't have any pf2500. I have 400 which is for my truck and way to aggressive, the SIP 1500, the 4000 and 4500. I was worried the SIP might be to aggressive...
Hey folks I was getting read to make a post and I saw one by knuckles that gave me some good ideas but I have some additional questions because my car isn't quite as cherry as his!
I’m planning to do an exterior detail on my 2008 Midnight Blue Metallic 911 turbo this weekend and I wanted to ask...
Thanks for the input folks. The truck wasnt taken care of prior to me owning it so I am trying to get her to survive for a while until I can get back to the US to get a reasonably priced respray.
Any recommendations to prevent the damage from getting worse (stopping rust etc) over the next two...
Here are some pictures if they help. I tried to take one along the level of the paint. Hopefully you can see what I mean by the pics.
As size reference the heavy oxidation is probably 3" across
I have a griots 6" da so I have it covered there.
I THINK it is just etched. I can't feel anything with my hand and I can't feel any more friction with the clay bar.
I do have some tarx I could sray on to make 100% sure if it will hurt if there is still some sap on there.
I am working to bring my 02 Dodge truck back to life paint wise. The previous owner parked it under trees for a long time and I spent a lot of time clay barring to get the tree sap off the car. The "bumps" are all gone but I can still see the "image" of the sap in the pain especially if it is...
So I have a 08 997TT that has some minor rock chips. Nothing major just those little buggers that get on every low car that drives on the road.
I am looking at options to get rid of the rock chips without repainting.
If I put a clear bra on it will that "fill" the dings (quality film...
Not to argue but wind chill only effects living creatures. Your soap, APC, WAX etc cold be in 3000mph winds and it wont ever get colder than the ambient temperature. :props:
I got a truck that was smoked in heavily with the ashtry left full and ashes everywhere. I started out by doing a great wipe down removing as many of the vents as possible to get as much for the dirt and dust out of the crack and crevices.
Next, I took some APC and cleaned the snot out of...
Well, I called and spoke to the folks at Menzerna. They definately dont sell out of their factory and referred me to "Google" to find a distributor in Stuttgart. The prices over here are more expensive than in the US. They also seemed puzzled that I would ask if they do tours....you would...
Yea if I head out my VAT forms will be with me (tax free) and I will get there using good old American priced gas! They actually take pretty good care of us over here.
The factory may not want me to come by and that is definitely fine but hey 45 min away why not take a chance!
