  2. Sandblast Exhaust? 16 Feb 2016 03:37 So I need to find a way to stop my current exhaust from rusting that does not require a lot of money..... Why did I buy her as a commuter.....so much work
  3. Sandblast Exhaust? 14 Feb 2016 05:35 Well I sand blasted a small portion of my collector and I love the texture it left, anyways to clear coat it?
  4. Sandblast Exhaust? 13 Feb 2016 19:31 ok so no blasting, but what about wrapping? do I clean it then wrap or just wrap and ignore the surface rust?
  5. Sandblast Exhaust? 13 Feb 2016 07:43 So I have my exhaust off for stud replacement and to fix a leak. While it is off should I sandblast it or take after it with sandpaper? I do not intend to paint it just yet.

  14. Choosing A Proper Solvent 18 Jan 2016 17:33 If it works it works
  15. Choosing A Proper Solvent 18 Jan 2016 05:23 shampoo has a plethora of chemicals that are made to strip grease out of hair, makes sense it works on engines. I would worry about it attacking the clear coat and rubber parts.
