Ben. Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Hell yea.. Clearcoat's a bitch to put on in a spraybooth. I had some that tried to form runs in the middle of painting the cab of my old Mustang. Base went on fine..I dunno what the f*ck happened to the clear.

Pyrorocketeer Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 alluminum same pyro have seen it done. it conducts electricity fine. were you talking about the powdercoat? it is hard to coat because it "gasses" out when heated, and opens up pores. you have to heat it, coat it (while hot) then bake it, and not let it get below a certain temp. If it does, you get bubbles, and pits. there is a pic of some chrome powder coat. this wasn't sanded and buffed. straight out of the oven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90IntegraC1 Posted February 12, 2007 Author Share Posted February 12, 2007 wow, i drove back from NYC and 2 pgs added! word, i think i'm going to try Cranny/Hung/Pyro's method of sanding them down, clearing, and buffing the wheels....i love doing those types of projects, and so does Compuvision02 (Rob). Tomorrow I'm ordering many many part, so check back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanGSR Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Yeah, and worst case scenario is if it doesn't work out to just paint them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrorocketeer Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Clearcoat? - I tend to shy away from using this because it only lasts so long, and even the best, most expensive brands are not quite 100.0% clear. In the past, I have successfully used Nyalic, which you can buy direct from the manufacturer, HBI, by calling 1-800-40-NYALIC or over the net at www.OrderNyalic.com. It is a clearcoat designed for aluminum and designed to withstand elevated temperatures and not turn yellow. It was fairly easy to use, but like I mentioned, it left the metal looking a lot LESS shiny than I prefer. Bottom Line: if you are looking for a low-maintenance, very good finish, use Nyalic - if you are looking for that mirror-like shine and willing to re-polish every once and a while, don't use a clearcoat. just something I found when searching around today.....

Joe W Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 JDM Rear Wiper Delete Plug Is there anything like this for a crx or the one you have universal? Also how much do they run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90IntegraC1 Posted February 13, 2007 Author Share Posted February 13, 2007 well mine was listed as for a EG Civic, but I bought it anyway b/c I couldnt find one for my car and it fits perfectly as you can see.....shed some pounds too b/c i took the wiper motor out and trashed it lol, now i'll really feel vtack kick in. Wiper Delete Plug $21.00 + shipping but it's worth it b/c it makes your car look sooo much cleaner from the back. it blends in nicely if you dont look for it you know?
