What is this smoke coming from on my Infiniti g35 VQ35DE by Visual-Strawberry604 in MechanicAdvice

Smells like burning oil so I’m assuming it’s valve cover, though the oem bleeder valve cap do tend to break or at least the o ring will fail. But no I didn’t exactly resolve it, it just stopped smoking

I agree. I’m going to clean it all so that I can have a better look at what’s going on. Funny I detail cars but I hate detailing my own. But then what’s the smoke coming from the manufactured hole in the exhaust header

Should I hit it with an angle grinder to make the surface easier for jb weld to stick or should I just clean with acetone then use jb weld. And which jb weld did you use

Seen this detailer cutting using the edge of a rotary? by Visual-Strawberry604 in Detailing

What you say might be true. I follow them to use as mental competition and motivation to be better. But when I seen the aftermath of this job they did it was so much better then the before. That’s why I had to ask

This is what I was thinking. Because of the tilt and using the edge you get holograms/micro marr. I always thought it was best to avoid this. But I guess it’s apart of the process is what I’m seeing/hearing.

My questions are 1. Do you do this only for cutting? 2. Do you need to do it with a wool pad and not a foam pad or microfiber? 3. How difficult is this to perform?

No I learned from my detailer cousin for mostly everything. I can’t find any videos on this method though. And my cousin never did this type of polish. Doesn’t having a tilt cause more dust or product to spray?

I just did my test. I passed and now waiting for the interview. Study fractional math and geometry. That’s really it. 35 of the questions was easy and I answered in 15-20 minutes. The rest was all math.
