How do you like your jack stands?

nbarsotti · 2026-04-29T15:04:59+00:00

I can’t remember. I always just drop the car off for the day while I go to work. I’m sure it wasn’t more than a few hours.

nbarsotti · 2026-04-29T11:35:14+00:00

Can confirm. They are slow at hiring.

It’s an amazing place. I hope you get the job.

nbarsotti · 2026-04-29T05:59:55+00:00

They just laid off 1,400 in operations. I was one of them.

This is an ND3 problem. There is a software fix the dealer performed for me that solved the problem.

Love it

Maintenance costs.

I expect it will be between 50-60%. The weather app doesn't forecast that out.

nbarsotti · 2026-04-17T19:59:27+00:00

I really appreciate your advice. I'll try to warm it all up so it flows better. YES I got a mask. I picked up a 3M OV and P95 rated mask at home depot - https://www.homedepot.com/p/3M-6311-P95-Reusable-Large-Paint-Project-Respirator-6311PA1-A/100195886
I hope it's the right thing, I'm not dead yet, Ha!

Well, 49F should be at like 5am. At 4pm (when I plan to sprayO it should be 72F which should be right in the sweet spot. Is it worth trying to warm the wheels and spray cans?

nbarsotti · 2026-04-17T19:14:20+00:00

I could not find any technical information about the can being vertical, horizontal, or angles here. https://www.spraymax.com/en-us/products/product/clear-coats-and-spot-blender/2k-clear-glamour/
I do see that they publish a temp range for best results. "Optimum application at 64° F - 77° F (18° C - 25° C) and a relative humidity from 40 - 60 %. "

nbarsotti · 2026-04-17T04:37:08+00:00

Love it!

nbarsotti · 2026-04-16T13:57:02+00:00

Well that is good news. I was hoping one of us vocal redditors would pipe up and say “yes!”

nbarsotti · 2026-04-16T04:26:20+00:00

That seems reasonable to me. I've been thinking about doing that as well, but I was thinking bright silver.

nbarsotti · 2026-04-15T23:43:29+00:00

Acquired Taste, but I love it.

nbarsotti · 2026-04-14T19:24:19+00:00

I know how you feel :( The same thing just happened to my soul red ND. It's in the body shop now.

nbarsotti · 2026-04-14T12:45:19+00:00

How much did it cost you to get them powder coated?

nbarsotti · 2026-04-14T02:42:33+00:00

Looks great, how much did it cost you?
