can't see much through the paint. strip the areas and post more photos

I have one of these and I like it for sanding and polishing. Variable speed and soft start. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Makita-6-6-Amp-6-in-Random-Orbital-Sander-with-Variable-Speed-BO6050J/207100668 They may not manufacture the 6050 anymore. I have a Bosch like this and it works like the...

What, are they junk? Can't tell from the photos, but they said it was unused.

Did I outbid you on it? Wasn't that the strangest auction ever? I'm surprised I got anything bought. Their live auctions were fine, but all of these auctioneers need to step up their online game. When you can't tell two hubcaps from four...

New T-P HVLP-90 paint sprayer for $175. Now I have to learn how to use it

Hey, don't wear anything, they are your eyes and the first pair are free.

I am going to find a sacrificial piece of trim and try that... It must strip oxidation first. I buy my Lye in 50 pound bags. I use it fairly often and I would advise all here to be very cautious. That guy's high pressure water hose and his small glasses scared me. I don't wear a suit, but...

Brasso is good, but you might want to look for vintage Brasso if you have a lot to do. I bought some new stuff and gave it away to a neighbor because it was disappointing to me. Like so many other chemicals, it has been fixed, i.e. neutered. I watch for vintage chemicals at auctions and...

Popped right out. I'm happy so far. This is just a test and I need a pair of air cleaners for my low deck dual quad. Now, I'm off to learn about composite materials.

I have a few molds that are ready and I don't want to risk damage to their finish, so the dual quad lid is a latex guinea pig. Fiberglass wants to bond to things so much, it scares me. In a couple days the latex will be cured and I will pour plaster of Paris around it. I have some gel coat...

I think epoxy. I sensitized myself doing a big fiberglass job. I finished and then noticed the ground was like a trampoline. I get dizzy just writing about it.

Never worked with latex molds. This is the first coat, and the second coat is setting up in the cup. Planning to make a fiberglass dual quad air cleaner for my experiment. I used Smooth-on 25 over their sealer, then Mann 200 Release. I have a few things I would like to make, so I'm starting...

My research, a couple months old, showed that it is not banned. The trump administration told the EPA to ban it, but they didn't The EPA did ask retailers to stop selling it, and they did. They cited the number of deaths from it in the last 40 years: 12. It didn't work for me, but I was...

Yeah, and you can get .22 ammo too. Down here, we're SOL

Spruce Aircraft no longer sells it and they were the last source I knew of. Is there any other source available?

They look good in the photos on FB. Someone bought a pair, but he hasn't installed them yet. He says he will report when he does.

Thanks, that's the guy. He has a website: Joe Philips Restoration. His stuff looks good.

I know I saw it here on FBBO, but I can't find the right Forum. There's a guy who knocks out quarters by hand. They weren't cheap, but they weren't completely prohibitive either. They looked pretty good in the photos, though it was without paint. If anybody bought one, I would also like to...

A buddy of mine runs a frame machine and does a lot of work for shops that do repairables. I'm thinking they would get $200 for squaring a unibody. A couple weeks ago, they were going to do a 69 Charger that was tee boned hard, A and B pillars. It was dropped off, bu before they could bring...

Local automotive paint stores make it. My place goes with a 2-fer offer as it they get a better product, the more volume they mix. I find their tips spray a better pattern than any rattle can tip I have ever used.
