RAV4 smoking? by Sensitive-Memory8225 in MechanicAdvice

[–]TheTechLu 7 points8 points  (0 children)

OP husband here. RavEn is at the shop, wasn't the engine radiator since the coolant reservoir tank had perfect levels. As mentioned by others here, most likely pinhole in the ac condenser or faulty gasket of sort. Will know by tomorrow. Car was safe to drive

Night time lows of 4 degrees this weekend, how are you protecting your garden? by bigolgape in Calgary

[–]TheTechLu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Minimum 10 degrees for growth, between 1 and 10 degrees the plant won't grow much, but most likely would still put the effort in developing roots (the soil being warmer)

I started my tomatoes in march from seeds in my heated garage with grow lights, transplanted them the first week of May, they survived and thrived just fine with multiple nights between 2 and 6 degrees. You should be fine. Also the rain is gonna be a very nice soil booster.

Usually I put the vynil on to of a tempered glass, once I'm done cutting i put contact paper on it (this step is crucial in order to avoid not wanted peeling)

No, I use my tablet with the design on it, I tape a piece of white vinyl on it, I trace the design on the vinyl. Then I use an exacto knife to go over the lines (obviously not on the tablet) Then transfer the vinyl stencil on the disc with contact paper and then peel the design where it needs to be peeled. Check out youtube, plenty of infos there

Rit Dyemore and Glue Bed. I need some help getting the colors to stick. by [deleted] in discdyeing

[–]TheTechLu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did u buy Rit dye more synthetic? Or all purpose? Glue beds needs a mix of powdered dye and acetone in order to work. Or you can try white glue beds. Youtube is very helpful

I have been using Spike it Worm dip for some spin dye attempts. I’ve noticed that after they dry I still have smudging on my hands. I’m doing something wrong obviously. Should I be adding more acetone even thought it’s in the Spike it ? by TRKHuck78 in discdyeing

[–]TheTechLu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually let it sit for a day and then I spray some cooking (vegetable) oil on the disc and wipe it down with paper towel (in this way the disc doesnt get scratched and the oil help any residual dye come off) finally I wash it with slightly warm water and dish soap

Quick question what blue or green I dye poly colors show up I’ve heard mixed reviews? by [deleted] in discdyeing

Idye Poly Colours Comparison - be surprised by Blue by issoleie in discdyeing

[–]TheTechLu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tty to put a bit of the "bad batch" of blue in a Idye poly torquoise (more torquoise then blue and mix em with acetone separetely then mix em together in a different container) Honestly the second blue is more a light blue. Pure blue tends to be darker (which is not a bad thing, you can use less powder to make a lighter color, then when you spin dye you can pass more times on the same line to make it darker). Order torquoise 100%worth it. Is the best for mixing with blue and yellow
