    Yep, I would take it and have them do the Bumper. :whistle:

    Yep if you’ve got any remote plastic showing, it will bead up. If there’s not too many area’s showing Just spot the adhesion promoter in. Also if I’ve got any previous base coat showing, I’ll spot it in to. Just to avoid the solvents from messing with it.

    And I’ve also found if you have any basecoat showing you’ve likely got small scratches down to the plastic, and it always seems to bead up on me…

    At least it does every time I decide “Eh, it’s good enough and don’t need an adhesion promoter”

    But if I don’t give a damn it never does it… :blink:

    Yeah, it’s a slow gun.
    That’s why RP guys always crank them up. To try to get some speed out of them.
    But they just don’t lay extremely nice, and they seem to waste more than an RP would once cranked up.

    30 PSI on a LPH? :woohoo:
    That is damn high.
    Mines lucky if I ever crank it over 20…
    RP guys always have trouble with Iwata’s they just don’t seem to understand that the less air you put through it the better.

    Looks like it turned out good though.

    Uh bondo. it looks like somebody broke in and bagged this one. :silly:

    Thanks for the info guys.

    I looked around for some of the stuff you guys suggested and while looking I found some detailers reviews on some products.
    I found a lot of places that offered good deals. but some of them were outrageous on shipping.
    (Like for a gallon of Malco wax that cost 29.99 it was 31bucks shipping)
    So anyways I looked around and it looked like the Chemical Guys products were the best bang for the buck.
    Lot of detailers were saying a lot of their stuff is better than the expensive 3m, Maguires, Presta, and so on stuff.
    And they’ve got a huge detailing line. Probably the biggest detail product producer I’ve seen. (Maybe not 3m, I dunno)

    I talked to them and the guys are really informative, and seems like a bunch of good guys.

    I’ve still got to order some pads. I was looking at those Lake Country CSS pads. I actually picked up a couple 4 inch to give it a try.
    And I was going to order some of the 3m Waffles. (I’ve been debating on the two, but the 3m stuff is about the same price. 2 for 24 or 12 each for the Lake Country stuff.)

    So you really like those Lake Country CSS pads?
    I think I’ll take your word for it and order a set.

    Thanks again guys

    Haha, nice. 👿

    Where do you get all those dog food bags?
    Aren’t those things like really greasy inside?

    Also the rest of you guys can fill in as well.
    Remember this is going to be on factory coatings.
    And the end result is going to be all that matters. :whistle:

    :lol1

    So what ended up being the problem? What you were coating the seams with?
    or just an adjustment? Maybe consumables? Hard to really guess. there is just too much shit that screws with welds. :cheer:

    Looks good to me.

    Busy here, and lots of request.
    Hell I’ve had to do stuff for seven clients in the last week.

    And although most you guys that put out 75 cars a week are thinking “Huh, only seven?” :woohoo:

    That is actually a lot for me. :pcorn:

    It appears only available in Africa, Asia, and Europe.
    So not sure how much help any of us are going to be… :huh:

    March 21, 2009 at 9:55 am #13527

    Yep you deserve a reward ol’ tex.
    Those handles would’ve turned out so bad. I can’t even begin to think about attempting it… :S
