    Chad.S

    Just wanted to give some props to Chad and his crew. It’s nice, if you live in the middle of nowhere, to be able to pick up the phone and order base coat that you’re confident is probably going to match. Just ordered a Qt. of Motobase GM summit white that matched like factory, and covered in two...

    Spraying Polyester Primer?’s

    I am spraying Poly for the first time and need a few pointers. I am using Evercoat 4-1 high build and picked up a Vaper 2.0 gun to spray it with. What’s a good starting pressure at the wall and will the 2.0 tip need any reduction? One coat or two? Any other tips for me? Thanks!

    Dark waterborne?

    I just opened a new gallon of waterborne and it’s about the color of tea. It’s a little over a year old. The lid was on tight and stored in my heated basement. OK to use?

    PSA Paper?

    Hey guys, I need to order a few various grades of PSA roll sand paper. Just curious as to what brand people are using. I’ve swore off 3M because of the adhesive residue. The 3M is nice as far as cut, but I just don’t understand the adhesive they use. Thanks

    Storing mixed epoxy in the fridge.

    Mixed up a big cup of black epoxy for the final coat in the engine bay, but had to leave it to help out a friend, so I stuck it in the beer fridge... It will have been in cold storage for a little over 48 hrs. Let it warm up and use it, or toss it? Thanks

    C-Aire compressor

    I need to upgrade my compressor and have been reading a lot of reviews and info on various brands. The C-Aire looks good on paper, low pump speed, quiet, and a two yr warranty. Curious if anyone here has any experience with them. I am looking for a 5hp, two stage, 80 gallon compressor for a...

    Thinking about getting a blast cabinet for the shop. Does anyone have any suggestions for brand, style, size? I'm thinking a med size as I just take any really large stuff outside and blast away. What are you using that you are happy with, or not happy with? Thanks!

    Shop supplies?

    I searched around a bit, but could not find much info, and I know I have asked this here before, but it's been a while, and I am just about out of everything. Where are you ordering your basic shop supplies from? Things like cups, tape, sand paper, gloves, etc... Thanks!

    I would like to share an experience with you, about drinking and driving. As you well know, some of us have been known to have had brushes with the authorities on our way home from the odd social session over the years. A couple of nights ago, I was out for a few drinks with some friends...

    8N Ford Tractor?

    Got a 1950 8N Tractor I would like to clean up and repaint. My first thought was to clean, and sand it real good. Then lay down a couple of coats of Epoxy, but after thinking about it, is the Epoxy gonna lift the old paint? I tried wiping some Epoxy activator on the red and it seemed to soften...

    Outboard Engine Paint?

    Getting the boat cleaned and charged up for spring fishing and noticed how ratty the outboard is looking. It's time for a repaint and new decals. Is the paint something I can get mixed at the auto paint store or do I have to order from OMC? I looked around online and all I found were spray...
