Nice job! I think I'll do mine that way too. I'll paint the calibers while the wheels are off also.
What did you use to polish the pipes?

Nice job! I mean the wheel wells not your fingers.

Thanks, everyone, for the compliments!! I LOVE working on my car, but I need a lift so I can really get after it!!! ....some tools & knowledge might help, too.....hahaha!!!

I used "NeverDull" to polish the pipes -- comes in a metal can -- it's a wad of cotton or something with the polish already in it.....however, the results just aren't blingin' enough for me....when I decide on an exhaust system (probly GMMG), I'm gonna chrome everything under there!!

That last one is really the only one thats important!

Besides, there is always something attractive about chicks that work on cars.

hmmmm...I think I see my next project! How easy does that stuff go on? Just like paint? Thicker/Thinner?!?!? Where to buy?!?

Posted by cytruffle (Member # 1733) on :
 
I got this stuff at AutoZone, however Mr. RagSS had suggested WalMart. It would probly have been a h3lluva lot easier to do if I had taken the wheels off.....but.....I'm not to that lesson yet in my "Cars for Female Dummies" book...

The stuff goes on just a little thicker than paint and dries very quickly (especially on skin and jewelry). I put 2 coats on, and this seemed to cover well enough. It really gives that area a sharper look & it should be easier to clean if/when it gets dirty.
