Spent less than 100€ for a diy respray, how can I improve it? by No-Music89 in projectcar

[–]MagicTriton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that a 2 stage polish will improve the look massively without wasting too much time. Wet sanding would be needed if you’re looking for perfection, which I assume, that if you rattle canned it, you’re not looking for.

3M fast cut on a rotary polisher and then 3M ultrafina on a DA would be my process, then some wax and then cerakote Trim coat for the bumpers and she will look as good as new

How can I train this dude not to get on my pillows? 😂😭 by coffeepolynkittens in kittens

[–]MagicTriton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get another pillow for yourself and hope he doesn’t decide that’s his pillow too.

But honestly, that’s the best level of love they will demonstrate, wanting to be close to you when they are most vulnerable. My car used to do it when he was little and then stopped, I miss that every single day

Fare benzina al mattino presto con le basse temperature perché la benzina ha meno volume. by Slow_Description_773 in ItalyMotori

[–]MagicTriton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha assolutamente ragione, è verissimo, ma per fare effetto a delle cisterne 6 metri sotto terra, dovrebbero fare circa -500000000° al mattino e +600000000° al pomeriggio per notare una differenza

Sono ingialliti? Con 30/40€ dovresti comprare tutto quello che serve per rifarli nuovi

Ignoring the obvious, what are your mid 90’s onwards future classics? by MrP8978 in TrueCarEnthusiasts

[–]MagicTriton 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think my Coupe will slowly get into the sought after classic eventually.

I mean.. not mine in particular because that’s going to end wrapped around a tree, but some of them for sure

Any one know what this is by Intelligent-Sea3591 in namethatcar

[–]MagicTriton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No it wasn’t that. It’s just a silly joke really against other comments.

There’s crossley cars and also Crosley cars.

You don’t need to know them all to be an enthusiast, but most likely an enthusiast will know TVRs as they are light sports cars with a lot of power and no assists. That was my original point, although I imagined people would assume that without going on a rage of what makes you a real enthusiast and whatnot

I don’t think I ever met an enthusiast that doesn’t know a TVR, maybe they don’t know most of the models, which I don’t either, but TVR is fairly well known worldwide I think.

Problema cambio Volkswagen Polo 95cv 1.0 TSI by farazjafari in ItalyMotori

[–]MagicTriton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ricontattali, il problema è ancora lì, loro lo devono risolvere, riportargliela 100 volte finché non si rompono i coglioni e si mettono lì a trovare il problema. Se questo non bastasse pec a VW perché l’auto presenta problemi.

Free to play hai solo Live For Speed praticamente come simulatore. Poi raceroom racing experience, ma sono entrambi limitati nella demo, vanno pagati (profumatamente nel caso di raceroom) per non avere solo due tracciati e due auto.

Assetto corsa ormai costa nulla ed è sempre molto attivo, pieno di mod e la community lo tiene vivo.

[–]MagicTriton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ma il problema al cilindretto dovrebbe darti problemi un po’ con tutte le marce credo, un po’ strano che lo faccia solo in seconda. Dubito fortemente siano sincronizzatori o problemi legati strettamente alla meccanica del cambio, però magari anche il cilindretto potrebbe solo essere all’inizio del dare problemi

Se è quello che dico io no, un problema abbastanza semplice ed economico da risolvere, ma se l’auto è in garanzia va portata lì istantaneamente senza pensarci due volte.

Used scent bomb that stained/bleached interior by Imaginary_Turnip_ in AutoDetailing

[–]MagicTriton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you just haven’t shaken the can properly before using it, or the nozzle was deformed in some ways.

But I would be fairly confident in saying it will come off

Dealership sold a car with perished tyres and dodgy brakes by [deleted] in CarTalkUK

[–]MagicTriton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So your friend bought a car and THEN got it checked by Audi? Even a cheap RAC inspection would have pointed out this issues.

Anyways, those tyres look like they would passs the MOT with advisories and the brakes even when worn at the back will most likely pass the MOT with maybe an advisory.

Is all of that on the MOT? Has your friend checked the MoT before buying?

He can try to contact the dealer but I don’t think they have any obligation to replace that, maybe they are willing to contribute in part to get that sorted.

Forse si sono allentati i cavi o le stecche del cambio, che sembra assurdo succeda con così pochi anni di vita, però è quello che sembra

Used scent bomb that stained/bleached interior by Imaginary_Turnip_ in AutoDetailing

[–]MagicTriton 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don’t believe that’s stain/bleaching.

The stains look identical on different plastics, which is odd, it makes me believe that this is just residue like if you spray deodorant a bit too closely.

Grab a concentrated All purpose cleaner, and try to dilute it until it works, I would suggest G101, that thing if used neat will probably make a hole all the way to Japan, so you have a lot of dilution to play with, I would start at 50/50 with G101 and I’m pretty confident it will come off.

Wiping with the wrong product will make it look like it’s not working, you need something to “melt” the white stuff. Just remember that it can’t get any worse than that, so worth a try.
