The wheels will take you forever pal as you well know. I use to buy a spray, I can't remember the name of it but it was really evil stuff, got a little on my arm and it took care of the hair and first 3 layers of epidermis very quickly! I'd spray, let it sit then wipe off, did it twice, anything left over got the wheel treatment.

The steel is left smooth as glass. I'll do some searching and see if I can find the name of it for you.

Kevwood

Not exactly what I used but it sounds like it's close (and a whole lot friendlier than the crap I used);

Go to aircraft paint removal, this stuff should do the trick.

Jamesbbh

I was just about to say I remember like 6 years ago getting this aircraft urethane parts paint remover and I did the same thing, sure enough I had burn on my shins/forearms for a few days haha.

Kevwood

That's the stuff! Funny that we both don't remember the brand name but we remember the bodily harm they inflicted

Jamesbbh

Yea as soon as you said that "aircraft" and "wear thick rubber gloves!" popped up in my head lol

Kevwood

That stuff works damn good though, I use to have old W-body engine cradels looking like they were polished in an hour. Best stuff in the world to use before doing welding patch jobs too - you cant get an area any cleaner.

Jamesbbh

On most of the little spot welding stuff I'll usually just hit it with an angle grinder then a steel brush, but if I ever have to do something around a pre-finished area I'm going to try that stuff out.. I am going to pick up some of that stuff tonight and spray the trailer down with it. It reminds me of the blood of the aliens in the movie "alien" haha.

Kevwood

Epic movie, one of my all-time top 10. I'd love to find it on Blu Ray over here. Any yeah, pretty sure the stuff in the can is one of the same! Maybe something actually did happen at Roswell...

Badblackfolife

yo jamesbbh send me one of your SPIDERS!

Jamesbbh

Well I welded one to a trailer and my mom wants the other one but if I get around to making some more I'll make you one haha

Jamesbbh

So I went to the beach yesterday and couldn't help but laugh and take this pic:

Srt-8 charger runs into another charger-
Who do they call?
State trooper charger.

I wonder if he "charged" them with "charging into another car" haha



Also, a little jeep work-
Bed-lined the passenger undercarriage to match the drivers side:



Also put a drain plug in the bottom of the storage area so it can double as a lockable cooler so nobody steals your beeeeeeaaaaaaaassss

James, I LOVE the Bud-light body kit!!! Can we mod that to fit a 209???

mikata

Haha, looks awsome James!

Jamesbbh

Straight custom son!! Sponsored by Bud Light Racing.
I think I might have some new car pics coming up soon though, I got some pinstripe tape that is almost the same color as the car and I'm thinking about doing the lip of the wheels.

Eh?

lol

Kevwood

Very NASCAR!

mikata

Too bad we don't got bud light here in Sweden, only budweiser

Jamesbbh

Now I just need a sponsor from mossy oak, Skoal, beating your wife in general, and maybe a meth lab and I'll be the most sponsored redneck ever!

Jamesbbh

Oooo BUD heavy is rough on the head the next morning lol

Kevwood

I prefer Bud over Bud Light but I really liked Bud Ice, I don't know if they still even make it? I use to drink it when I would go to Montana for the weekend from Canada back in the mid-90's.

Kevwood

Contact Jeremy Mayfield in regards to meth sponsorship...

Jamesbbh

What do you guys think about the color match pinstripe on the wheels? yay? nay?

Kevwood

Not following you... Jeep or CLK?

Jamesbbh

Oh sorry I mentioned it in an earlier post. I ordered some 1/4" silver metallic pinstripe tape and I'm thinking of doing the lip of the 19's on the car. And if it looks decent, going over the small slivers of chrome down the sides of the car with the same tape.

Mr. DIY!

Kevwood

I think it'll look pretty good actually, it'll make the wheels look bigger. I look forward to seeing the results.
