Body Work & Detailing

Anyone know where I can get primer paint in spray can? Maybe know online Store address ?

Hello again. I want all of your guys andive and input on this. I need to strip an old pickup of all of it's paint and rust. What would be the best way to do this? I would assume a angle ginder of some sort with a special disk. Is that right? It seems like I would take more then the paint off with that and run the risk of cutting through the sheet metal. I've also heard of some chemicals that you put on, but that sounds like it could do more damage that I want it to. I know that some of the rust is all the way through so I will have to cut the saection out, weld metal in and use a fiberglass filler, but in some areas the metal is in great shape and I just need to strip the paint. If anyone has any suggestions on...

What would happen if it started raining immediately after applying Z2 before it dried and could be removed?

How can I keep my polished wheels clean? I go wheeling often, and polish my wheels when I can. It just seems that they get dull no matter what I do. Does anyone have any cleaning tips? I was thinking about maybe getting the powder coated black.

How do you know when to use Z1 after having used Z2 for some time? Thanks....

Well my front bumper has mysteriously started to sag on the passenger side. It is now about an inch higher on the right side than it is on the left side. It isn't loose and there are no marks from someone hitting it. So my question is is there anyway i can fix this easily?

Wax the XLT this weekend. I may even wash the Sport if I feel up to it enough. Pretty crazy thinking!!!Hopefully I don't get tired halfway through and have a half waxed truck though.

Over the years, the clear coat on my 93 EB wheels has become cloudy. However, I can put a lot of time into polishing them and they look fairly nice for a while, then the cloudy appearance returns. I suspect the problem is under the clear coat which may require refinishing, but I am hopeful someone might know of an aluminium clear coat polish that will do the trick as a last resort. Thanks Mike

:eek: MY paint is coming off the roof of the truck. I am not sure if its from the sun or a bad wax job or even someone's evil hand, I just want to know if there is some way of preventing this from spreading because it is spreading; its making a bigger blotch. Alsois there a way or some product i can get to get this corrected without going to the paint shop? Thanks for your correspondence.

alright i sanded down the chrome finish, put 5 coats of black paint on it, and now 4 coats of clearcoat and its not looking quite as shiny as my car or my bumper, what gives? lol is there anything else i can do? thanks

I know I have seen on the site before a roll pan on an explorer and it looks great. I have been looking for one for mine and can't find one. I read in the other post that he had one custom made. Anyone know how much something like that would or should cost w/ paint?

Does anyone know if it is possibe to use some bondo and put my drivers side door handle back on?

OK... I get my lift on and no sooner does a major problem appear. I dont know how i missed this, but the bar that seperates the windows on the rear doors are both starting to bubble up and rust out. Does anyone know if this bar can be replaced?? How do I get it out?? I'm a lttle nervous that this is going to be a REALLY costly problem. HOpefully you guys can think of something. Thanks

Ok, I picked up my 302 Yesterday. I am Going to be Replace all Gaskets and paint the Motor. I have desided to paint it all Black. But the Motor has some Rust on it. What should I do to prep the Motor for the paint.

Ok, so here's the deal. I've got some sort of salt, or rust, or something on my hood. Really makes it look funny. It's on the roof too, but I'm getting a rack and that should clear any of that up. I don't really care about looks all that much, but this sucker sticks out like a sore thumb. Any ideas on how to get rid of it without having to get a paint job or replace the hood? Here's the best picture of the hood I could find: http://ucsu.colorado.edu/~dotyj/picture2.jpg and another: http://ucsu.colorado.edu/~dotyj/picture4.jpg Just a quick thank you to Chris for this pictures :D Anyways, any help is appreciated, thanks!
