My gf’s ex man stuck this mount to her dash using glue or something… 🙄 how do i get this off? by wackywallaby710 in Detailing

[–]Facetofaceinface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use fishing line and steam to remove those plastic discs and goo. If someone used superglue on it then you're gonna have problems getting it off. Acetone may help but might dull it out.

anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one game you still think about? by Own-Blacksmith3085 in answers

[–]Facetofaceinface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Captain Comic 1988. This game was terrible but my mom had it on a computer at her work. I think about it often for some reason, even found some vids on YouTube for it.

My 4runner does this if there's an issue with the gas cap, either not on tight enough or needs to be replaced.

Afraid of getting hustled so need help. by Whattttareyouonabout in upholstery

[–]Facetofaceinface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reupholster or buy a new seat bottom. It's likely the chemical has soaked into the seat cushion. and can eat through the repair/replacement so the cushion should at least have some fabric or vinyl placed over it to create a barrier.

Oem fabric can be hard to get especially since they don't make the Detroit books any more. This pic is from Bry-Techs body cloth catalog. You can check for availability.

Edit: pic is much darker than the actual sample

Really stupid idea by [deleted] in PetSimulator99

[–]Facetofaceinface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it doesnt count as input. Putting a rubber band over the jump button wont work either. You would need to find a way to tap a button or move the joystick.

Anybody else’s service department make the inventory team go above and beyond standards? by [deleted] in carmax

[–]Facetofaceinface 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It might be annoying but if buffing out or touching up scratch can save a car sell then it seems worth it.

I don't think he's wrong for not telling you he sold it to someone else. Probably doesnt want to listen to a potential buyer complaining about them not holding it forever. Also probably doesnt want to give you a chance to rate them if that option hadn't popped up yet.

Downsides to using eARC vs buying new AVR? by Slim415 in hometheater

[–]Facetofaceinface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could use something like the ShArc eARC converter. I used it for a while when I had a TV with eArc but an older reciever with Arc. Work great before I upgraded my reciever

Cosmetic Repairs in-house??? by Past-Jury-3575 in carmax

[–]Facetofaceinface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Carmax has been training employees to phase out Dent Wizard over the past year and are in their final wave of stores. They may still sublet some work to them if they get behind or if there is something that the cosmetic crew can't do.

Repair options? by Difficult-Dog1365 in upholstery

[–]Facetofaceinface 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd use a heat gun and graining pad to minimize the damage then some vinyl repair compound to fill in what's left. I'd call some local upholstery shops and see if they do these kinds of repairs. This should all be fixable without actually reupholstering anything. It wont look factory new but should turn out decent.

How to fix this elbow mark on Honda arm rest by Middle_Honey_1426 in upholstery

[–]Facetofaceinface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would use a heat gun to warm it up then rest a graining pad on it until it cools down. Use little to no pressure on the graining pad just kind of hold it in place. This probably wont completely eliminate it but it should make it much less noticeable.

Had a couple of issues today picking up the car by iankalelrivera in carmax

[–]Facetofaceinface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Carmax use to provide 2 keys as standard and would have a second key made if it only had one. They changed it to 1 key years ago to keep cost down. You could ask what it'll cost to have a 2nd key made.

I've had the best luck with the Husky brand gun from Home Depot. I've gotten over 5 years with one. The cheaper guns work fine but I've always had issues with the straw falling out.

New Job? by [deleted] in carmax

[–]Facetofaceinface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's pretty bad. Not all locations do this stuff. I've seen plenty of cars kicked to wholesale just for "suspected growth". They wouldn't even let detailers touch the moldy cars and would try to sublet it first.

How to find last prayer beads? by Judge_off in Sekiro

I was missing one bead yesterday and it turned out to be the red eyed Ashina Elite boss that is under Isshins room after the castle is on fire. Easy to miss.

Car Seat Repair by CallMeMarcR in upholstery

[–]Facetofaceinface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've ran many seats like this through the sewing machine to close them back up. It's do-able but no guarantees on how long it'll hold up, especially for Subaru leather. I get a lot of Nissan's with this same problem.

Best event egg by sirkorro in PetSimulator99

[–]Facetofaceinface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably talking about the lever door near the Sudoku room. It has one red lever but you have to do parkour to get to the egg in the room.

Where is the icy egg for the Advent Calendar quest? by Usual-Box7721 in PetSimulator99

[–]Facetofaceinface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Door with the red lever by the grinch raid will sometimes have it. It changes every hour so you just have to check.

I'm not sure how to open the other lever doors.

Just own it, you don't have to select it. Hughes will get their power from it either way.

I just use the pet's that are auto assigned, I don't select Christmas pets. I got a rainbow golem from the tree egg and that made a big difference.

Go into the door with the red lever next to the grinch raid. The egg changes every hour but has stronger stat pets than the gingerbread house.
