California. Nuff said. I like fall days with high winds. I get out there and flip the leaves up with the rake and let the wind take them as far as...

I wish I could send some of our late season heat. It's been 100% duty cycle on the A/C up until a couple days from now if they got it right. Still...

I've had the furnaces turned on for over a month already :( There's a million leaves in the yard, and most other yards as well. Impossible to clean...

I wanted a battery with an external vent to get the battery fumes out under the car instead of under the hood. Keeps the terminals from corroding,...

I noticed your vent tube. It is funny, with all my cars over the years I've never had a vent tube.

Fired up the Boiler yesterday for the season. Worked outside in the spitting mist most of the day but it warmed up to mid 50's by later afternoon....

If you jack the wheel up and make yourself an arm rest to stay steady on, you just need another person to slowly turn the wheel as you apply a 1/8"...

Noticed something last evening while I had the Aspen's hood open. Seems the body ground wire from the battery has melted insulation. ...

Far as I know, Frog Tape only makes painter's tape, not trim tape.

Only upside is, it all melted by noon when it started raining. Gee what a surprise, it rained........................ Sounds like the crap is on it's...

It is WAY too early!!! :smow:

This week I'll talk with the guy who did the vinyl on the bedside to see if he can do a vinyl "pinstripe" on the rims.

I like most everyone saw 3M as the leader with tapes, but I've heard Frog tape by far surpasses 3M. I'll need to see if they make double sided tape.

Called racing to the bottom. I wish I could pay more for a solid product, but they are almost all gone.

It doesn`t even have to be counterfeit. Over the years the cost savings from these companies are so much it basically causes/forces them to use China...

Part of the problem is that China produces all kinds of counterfeit product. I'm sure they make "3m tape". They make "Exedy" clutches, "Cisco"...

I don't even trust 3M tapes anymore. I've had more lifting and paint creep, etc than ever before in the past couple years. I'm just hoping that...

I've run into stick on things like that before. They make a good product but then cheap out on the tape and use some inferior product rather than a...

Nope? I wish! It gets better. Woke up this morning to see it snowing. Couple pics taken around 8am. Grumble, whine,...

My buddy just told me he thought the morning dew messed up the bonding process. That kind of makes sense since the vehicles outside are dripping wet...

Nope:nono:

The one in the picture uses a 3M pressure applied tape. It is split like a "door edge trim" with pull tape one side.

There is a physical bond kit out there that has tabs that fit between the rim lip and tire. But before I drop 160 on it, I need to do some more...

You keep that mess up north Rich! I've got a couple more weeks of work to do! Holy Cow, why I'm even saying such a thing in the middle of October is...

Glad to have a good review on the tool. I may just have to get one for myself.

RANT. It's 35 degrees, wind out of the north at 10-25 mph and snowing. I mean snowing as in a bleeping...

I didn't look into the product further, it's just an exterior stick on? I ran into the same problem with the stick on front spoiler on my Charger not...

It literally fell off one wheel.:finger020:

Thank sucks that it isn`t sticking well enough. You would think that they would have made a good enough product for proper adhesion or they shouldn`t...

You're not taking it Muddin. It does add a nice accent to the wheels too. I'd think about some E6000 adhesive that won't scar your wheels and remains...
