Hey Chris

Any one ever try plastic dip on the wire tabs on a firewall? Kind of wondering what to use.

Exactly what i was thinking.you try it and let us know..
Tire bead sealer was another option,and heat shrink was one more.

I think that's what @CudaChick1968 uses on here valve cover wiring tabs.

Firewall is just about ready for prime, one more inner fender, then prime, paint and get the dam suspension on again!

I don't remember if I put any on those. I think they were just paited body color. but basically same thing... Made these from sheet metal and coated to replace broken plastic ones.

I did that...I had the dip stuff and the spray stuff, if I didnt remove the clip, I taped it off. Works fine

 

[halifaxhops]

Plasti dip? Looks like what I want.

Thanks just looking ahead a bit, nice to have it all on hand. Not removing the "tabs"

I have real good success with Windex and a soft fine brass brush, then Armor-all.

But that is actually dipped. Not sure if you can get it to look like that painting it on

 

[halifaxhops]

Nothing on them now at all.

Thinking the dip stuff, also have a few other things to do. Trans line brackets, under dash clips etc.

Oh - you mean THOSE things. Panel-bond works immaculate.

 

[halifaxhops]

Tell you what finding a ton of ways to make things look great. Ron hooked me up with slip plate, car wrap for hoses, zinc plating, nickel/copper plating, tons more also. Oh yeah gun blue is a saver also.

Anything that can be removed, it works good. I suppose you could get smooth painting it on if thinned. Otherwise spray, but then need to tape /cover things good.

Coating the tabs?

I can prob dip them, they are easy to bend down and no engine right now.

As a coating?

 

[halifaxhops]

Dip is on its way. Have some tools that can use it also.

Gold?

 

[halifaxhops]

Hell yeah. Hey Ben can prob use some now!

 

[PosiRon]

Yeah. Like for instance I did these. Blurry pic but you get the idea - Just kinda goop it on quick and spread it around with your fingers and rubber gloves. It self-levels real nice and smooth and shiny and it's never coming off.

Hey who is still planning on going to Carlisle if it happens in July? Still on the fence with it.

Morning, don't think I would take the chance this year.
