    Glow Plug Resistors smoking?? Help.

    GPs Ok, did some more testing. The top post of the GP rellay is showing 0. with the key off. If I am reading it correct. And the resistior wire at the wire block is reading 0 with the key off. So it (top post of GP relay) should read 24v with the key off?

    That's the primer coat...if you are asking how much paint it takes to cover the blazer in one color coat...it depends if you use primer then about 1/2 gal. If you just use new paint over the old paint then 1 gal. Of course it also depends how much you thin the paint, how much bodywork was...

    PAINTING help needed

    Paint Paint= Rapco Mask= SAS Bandit Respirator Just sand down the paint until smooth but do not go to bare metal if you can help it and then take your time and start painting. Think 3 coats..one light then medium then heavy. David

    PAINTING help needed

    Paint equp. I like the HF paint guns I use the HLVP larg gun and the detail gun. I spent a little more and got them for 49.95 and 39.95 ea. The detail gun is great for cutting in the camo pattern and cuts down on the overspray alot. Be sure to get a " Air Dryer" for the hose and air supply...

    Here are a few shots of the current project for Ben (combatmech) M1009. He is getting a outside paint job with 383 green and black camo. He also had me install a new all steel Goodmark cowl induction hood which I think looks great. It's in primer now and will soon be green ASAP. David
