    Rapid Air System

    I have used the 3/4 system many times, great product! I wouldn't try the 1/2" for the fitting style, and I wouldn't use the 1" for the fact that the tubing is in foot-long sections(wtf?). If you have a fitting blow out, just check the straightness(true right angle) of your cut and make sure to...

    70 dart swinger slant turbo build and mild restoration

    Header manufacturers just tack weld the tubes in place then use an air hammer to form the tubes to the port opening once fixed to the flange. As seen on "how it's made".

    Two-Tone Layering Question

    That's it man! Go about a foot past the line with the purple before you spray the black, to leave yourself room to sand the fade smooth. To make sure you don't buy too much you could do the outside first then if you don't have enough for the jams you can order a quart. Although this will take...

    Two-Tone Layering Question

    Hmmm.. Single stage not being my normal thing, considering you're going with the roof black I'd have to make a WAG that a gallon will be right, maybe just a bit left over. You painting the jams? That might mean you need a little more. And I was confused by the "kit" designation but no listing...

    Two-Tone Layering Question

    What I was trying to say, is that particular paint is single stage. I should've looked it up first. As far as it holding up, well, doing the best prep you can and then using wax and keeping it clean after you're done is about all you've got to help it last. You only should need maybe three coats...

    Two-Tone Layering Question

    Is this what you're looking at? http://tcpglobal.netsuitestaging.com/s.nl/it.A/id.146880/.f It's single stage, hardened, urethane, and should hold up ok.

    Two-Tone Layering Question

    Acrylic enamel is a single stage. An ancient, non hardened (although some brands can be hardened) low uv resistance single stage. That said it was the industry standard for a long time. Enamel also takes a long time to dry. You'll have to apply the second color days later (maybe less consult...

    Two-Tone Layering Question

    Whichever way you do it, it takes a lot of clear to cover a line. If by urethane you mean a (hopefully high quality) single stage then there isn't much you can do. 3m makes blue and green stripe tape "fine line tape" they call it. Enables the cleanest straightest lines. And as far as the holes...
