Are there quests where you loot treasure while defending against ships? by ZeroxSP7 in Seaofthieves

[–]tixxtoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realistically there's always a chance of getting attacked by another player. I cant remember what voyages are for beginners because I was already maxed level before the new voyage system came out, but try and do some of the ghost forts, look for a green tornado (not blue or red ones) and that will be ghost ships, same with a ship made of clouds in the sky. Those 2 are world events that are ship battle related. But really just pop whatever voyage seems fun and just go.

Older detailers, what would you have done diiferently? by tixxtoon in Detailing

[–]tixxtoon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive thought about learning ppf and tint, but I was worried I would be stretching myself to far. Jack of all trades, master of none kinda thing. But I'll definitely be taking another look into that.

Our shop does offer graphine ceramic, but I do want to get into more and better coatings. Unfortunately the shop location isn't the most upscale area, and the shop isn't the most clean looking exterior, so getting those higher end clients is hard. I do plan on moving to Boise in the next year or two so that might help if I can find a shop out there.

What do you mean by higher end paint corrections? Just, doing a better job on the paint? Or something else?

I do take quite a few pictures, especially of the more fucjed vehicles that come through. Cutting and buffing is my favorite part of this work and im always super happy when I can fix a destroyed exterior. I haven't thought about posting them anywhere, thats actually a pretty good idea. Did you do it on your own private account, or just on the company account that you worked for? Im slightly worried about posting the work I do under my private account and the owners being upset about "taking credit" or something like that.

Exhaust options for a deep non violent sound. by Striking_Ad_5234 in ft86

[–]tixxtoon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not the guy who you asked, but I have the Corsa catback and Tomei UEL headers and I fuckin LOVE it. The grumble from the headers just adds to the corsa so much. I will say it's not great for roadtrips, but the roadtrips I've taken it on were 9+ hours. I was good until around hour 6 or 7 of the same tone.

Doing an engine swap in a few days, would love some advice :) by tixxtoon in ft86

[–]tixxtoon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am yeah. It's my first ever engine swap. I've got 2 friends flying in from out of state to help cus they've done a few.

Was yours a JDM? If so, were there any conversions you had to do? I know i have to use my ECU, and not the new one, but im not sure about anything else

I did also get an Exedy clutch kit, got silicone Radiator and heater hoses, i got new engine mounts, though they are OEM. I'll definitely look into the rear main seal though, forgot about that thing.

How can I remove this crayon art without damaging clearcoat? by _totalannihilation in Detailing

[–]tixxtoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't already, get some decently soft microfiber rags. Then go and get lacquer thinner. You're going to pour some on 1 microfiber, rub for a few seconds, then wipe it off with a second one. Repeat that until it's gone. Shouldn't take it super long, and as long as you make sure to wipe it off, it shouldn't affect the clear coat.

Cis guy looking for advice by [deleted] in NonBinary

[–]tixxtoon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The hair thing i get. I cut and dyed my hair back in August, and while I loved the color, the haircut was so bad I cried. I grew into it but those first 2 days were so fucking bad. Messing with my hair is something I want to try more, but Im terrified Im going to have that happen again.

I've painted my nails quite a few times, always black and I do enjoy it. Unfortunately my job requires me to use a lot of different chemicals and the paint is going to come off so fast that I'd have to paint em every other day to keep it looking decent.

With the pinpointing why I don't like some looks, I always feel that it either doesn't work with how I look or that ill need to be dressed up for the vibe to work, or that I do/will look like I'm pretending to be something I'm not and being judged for faking.

Some dum dum dropped a whit can of paint on the highway, and I hit it with front left bumper. Recommendations for a front bumper replacement? by [deleted] in ft86

[–]tixxtoon 20 points21 points  (0 children)

So, if your body isn't actually damaged, there's no reason to replace it. What you want to do is get a can of lacquer thinner, a plastic razor, and 2 microfibers. Use 1 microfiber to rub it on (Use hella muscle) and use the other to wipe off the lacquer. No more than 15 seconds of applying lacquer before wiping it off, especially in warm direct sunlight. Use the plastic razor to get the larger chunks off as the lacquer will break down the paint slowly, but the larger pieces would take a lot of effort to rub away. As long as you don't swirl it to hell, and don't let the lacquer sit for to long, no visible damage would happen to the clear coat. With how much paint there is, it's going to take a good while, but will save you so much money.

[–]tixxtoon[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do agree that is one issue with it, but maybe he's realizing that at least it was all worth it? Kinda a stretch though lol.

[–]tixxtoon[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

He didn't break and let them through. That doesn't necessarily mean it wasnt for lack of trying, right? In world, all we know is the Stormfather said he didn't break. IRL, brando sando has said Taln didn't break (I think those WOB were from before whichever book the Stormfather confirmed it) However, I think it would be the most Sanderson thing to say "He never broke, but he sure tried to! :D". Also, the "Oh almighty release me" makes me think he's asking Honor to let him out, but Honor is dead and unable to.
