    Im trying this tomorrow when all the stores open.. i have the positive post that screws in all the way but when i put that circle cable on, the screw won't catch and tighten no more. I wish the car would run without the positive connecte, but i doubt that would probly work huh

    The trick is the tape. It makes that tight fit slippery so the headlight assembly slips right behind the bumper. I'm a 67yo woman on a pension and this saved me money by doing it myself. Thanks a million for this!

    Hey Brother I just got turned down for a 4 wheel alignment because I accidentally painted the threads on my outer tie rod I installed before touch up painting my brake caliper and rusty shock and spring and pretty much all rust metal I could on my girlfriends 2011 Toyota Rav4. I used VHT ENAMEL spray can and it's cured and nit easily removed so adjustment nuts stay put for the alignment. The mechanic refused to perform service because of my sloppy paint work. I don't him blame at all. Since he's liable right? I felt like a real dope hack. So I tried wire brush on my impact gun..nit working. Then I saw your video and you said remove Crud, Rust, and Yes Paint too. So I need thar thread remover but just had foot surgery on 6/3 and no money to buy it. Then you added to give away free tool to the first 3 knuckle heads like me that really could use a Blessing. My Girl us pissed and I gotta get thus right and quickly to. So if you still have the tool give away please consider my story and desperation for your generous giveaway. My name is Chris D. And my number is 765-686-0232 Indianapolis area. Saturday night and hurting in many ways. Thanks for the post, hope you can still help me out with the thread cleaner. Thanks again

    I’ll have to rewatch this video as I’m not familiar with products and uses to repair cars. I just was trying to figure out if I could fix my garden gnome. He got shot in the head (hat) with a golf ball. The hole is about tennis ball size. He is hollow and made of that cheap like plastic material…don’t know what you call it. Would fiberglass tape and bondo work??? Any advice would be much appreciated as I also have a garden bear eating the gnomes and stepping on a gnome at the base got completely broken off and made with the same cheap material. I really want to fix them as I like these characters out in my flowerbeds…they bring a smile especially when I have to do the dreaded weeding😊

    Hey I’ve got a question that I can’t get a straight answer for. I’m spraying an Eastwood dtm epoxy primer and it says you can recoat within 4 or 5 days. I sprayed it and was going to go over with a 2k after an hour and a half but it’s still a little tacky so decided I’ll wait 24 hours. My question is do I need to clean the epoxy primed panels when I prime tomorrow or just tack rag it?? If I can clean it, should I I clean it with wax and grease remover or alcohol or what? Thanks for reading this novel lol.

    For a cheap job on a peeling clear car to clean up the look. Is it possible to use duplicolor sprayable lacquer quarts and spray a higher end urethane clear over the duplicolor base for better protection from elements and longer lasting job?? Brand isn’t specific but more of a lacquer metallic base with a urethane clear coat. Would it hold together ? This is for a factory 10 year old car that the clear is peeling bad and base is already fading, no rust yet. So pretty much hoping it would last longer than the factory clear did.

    Thank you for the video! I just got scammed by US CAR TRANSPORT!!! Gave me a price 650.00 from NY to Florida! I thought it was an excellent price they emailed me the total and wanted A 300.00 deposit which I did! Now I did all this 2 weeks prior they gave me a date when the car would be picked up!! No other price was mentioned! I even asked about toll prices and if I had to pay for them the States NO everything included in the price of 650.00 ..well the day before I was moving and the car was to be picked up they contacted me that I had to pay another 200.00 and when the car gets there another 500.00! Listen I don't mind paying for a service but to do this to me the day before I was leaving for Florida was insane!!! I'm 80 years old and I'm on A fixed income! The transporter came by uber which I thought was strange to get my car so I asked if he was insured to drive my car to wherever he parked his truck! At least I was smart enough to ask if he got into an accident driving my car to the truck who was liable? He said other customers had no problem with it ...I drove that guy with my car and a friend followed anyway spoke with the guy on the way and found out he's getting the 500.00 to transport and the broker is banking the 700.00 for doing nothing but stealing money!!! These people are crooks!!! They knew what they were doing and had me cornered because I would have been stuck doing that to me the day before! Again US CAR TRANSPORT don't use them unless to want to get scammed out of hundreds !!!!

    I wonder how thorough new car dealerships are at repairing a lot full of new cars damaged by a hailstorm? I know in Tyler, TX the Ford dealership is advertising 'hail sale' cars, claiming that you can't tell that they were ever dented. The Carfax or AutoCheck reports will always rat those vehicles out, at resale time.

    One very important piece of information you left out that you seem to be ignoring is to stop sanding when you see metal. Metal sands a lot slower that body materials, so if you continue sanding (as I see you are doing in this video), you are creating high spots (metal areas). You should stop sanding and apply more spot putty over the entire area where the metal is exposed to bring up the low spots.
