I had same trouble with my w111. Had shit in my fuel and crapping out the fuel pump many times, I just put in a visable inline filter in and treated my rusty fuel tank.

Any of you chaps got hook ups for some wide whites 185/13's

Actual pics of your car would be better then I can show you what it will look like with inverting those colours etc.

Thats sweet for design, but will need pics of your car. Side/front/rear

You still wanting sticker work done? Send me some pics one day and i can layout the design you want, got the gear at home to do it now.

Have done quite a few of these, if you want a high quality paint finish get it painted, they can look very good but its still just vinyl. 3m wrap film would be a 7 - 10 year vinyl, quality of the job will depend on the quality of your paint and the person doing your job, We have alot of problems with clear coming off from poor quality repairs etc. The vinyl comes as wide as 1500mm so if the person doing the job does it correctly there will be no joins, rough price to do it would be 3-4k including the film, hope this helps. Also if applied correctly no water will get underneath, only real problems are high stretch areas like bumpers where the vinyl tends to shrink back but there are primers etc to combat this .

por 15 metal reday it is, cheers

Im leaving a few large areas in bare metal for a few weeks, whats the best product to use to protect until ready to prime?

Painting alloy inlet manifold, cam covers etc. Block will be left alone just cleaned up

Anyone got any recomendations on what paint to use?

Currently im trying VHT Flame Proof etch primer and using the VHT Flame proof top coat and then baking in the oven.

Has anyone used this product? Im not entirley happy with the outcome has come out very chalky.

Lubing this thread

If its just been sanded through on the edges or nothing bigger than say a old 50cent cent coin, dont worry about it just prime as normal.

The colourpak etch and primer in a aerosol can is good to use, I dont use k&H filler so cant comment on it

Also get decent bog, cheap shit is shit, get a good quality bog as it has anti corrosive qualitys

Anyone got a half decent shed or something I could paint a car in. I got all the gear just lacking somewhere. It wouldnt be for a few weeks yet.

just wet the shit out of the walls floor etc and keep it wet youll be all good

yup so its fully protected, can clean etc, its not dull its just got a nice sheen not a shine, Ive only done jams etc

If your spraying clear you wont need to flatten your base, get your mettalic base spray that as per usuall, then spray 2/3 clear coats then on your last 1/2 coats of clear thats when you add your flattning agent, you only need a small amount otherwise it will go to grey,(try a test panel first), try your best to miminize overspray as stated before, you wont beable to cut it out, Ive done the same with a champagne met and it came out mint

I seens it.

I reakon seal bog/metal with a etch then tint a primer your guna get best (cheapest) results that way, theres no real way to go about it unless you fork out and do it proper. otherwise it'll just look like a usless c**t painted it.

Have had a few probs in the golf my igniter fucked out got it replaced now the car is limiting at 3000rpm. Could the coil pack/ignitor be the wrong one for the car? or has a sensor fucked out somewhere. Any ideas? all plugs seem to be fine will check for corosion freyed wire etc tonight.
