    Respray question

    Aha! found this on a paint suppliers site. Q: Do I have to clear coat your enamel paint? A: No, it is not required. Unlike urethane two stage paint jobs, acrylic enamel auto paints dry to a gloss finish by themselves. However, for ultra high gloss and scratch protection we do...

    Respray question

    Do you have to clearcoat 2k acrylic (solid colours)? The reason I don't want to clearcoat is that it makes future repairs/paint resto tricky - if i get a stonechip with no laquer, I just dab some paint on, let it dry and rub it smooth with G3 :wink:

    Audi TT or Subaru Impreza

    I had a S4 long ago, the B5 biturbo jobby, on an 99 plate in Nogaro blue... I hated it because it was heavy, understeared and the brakes were pony. As said by many, the engine is too far forward. There was an 05 Exige 255 cup on autotrader not long ago with 12k on the clock, warranty left...

    Ive had a thought...is it possible that something envoironmental (in the area) like pilons nearby could interfere with RCDs? they work on magnets don't they? the fact it happened to the upstairs sockets circuits (which were drawing some current (upstairs lights weren't as it was light when my...

    What pressure to test new pipework?

    That powerflow flux jams the fittings on the pipes so badly I could almost beleive it...and Ive discovered unsoldered endfeed fittings that didn't leak on a vented c/h system before but 3.5 bar would expose ANY lack of solder i'm betting...but I'm not a plumber so what do I know lol
