Daniel Posted February 18, 2002 Share #1 Posted February 18, 2002 A couple of tips I thought you guys may like.The horn button DATSUN as well as the glove box chrome is long gone.Geta can of spray chrome.Blast about 2or 3 seconds into can top.Touch the filter end of an unused cigarette into the lid.When you touch it to those locations the paint will only adhere to the high surfaces.It doesn't drip .I used that method to do the brake lines under the hood.It's fun,easy .When it wears it so easy to redo.All the emblems can be done this way as well as the fuse door(73).The chrome on the door panels is fixed by going to your home depo type store and getting hvac(heat/AC)tape.This tape is an aluminum foil duct tape.Armorall your door panel.Use alcohol and a cigarette to clean the plastic surface.Cut a strip a little wider than needed.Apply.Use a NON sharp popsicle stick type tool and slide it back and forth along the length of the panel.That creates a crease that tears loose perfectly!It doesn't stick to armorall.These are easy,cheap dressups.They aren't factory but you be the judge.As always with my tips if you don't like it you can put humpty dumpty back like he was. Have fun!!! Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royce Posted February 18, 2002 Share #2 Posted February 18, 2002 Hey Daniel,Those are good tips. You should put a this stuff in the Technical section! Although, if you do you might want to put a less fun but more descriptive title.Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted February 19, 2002 Author Share #3 Posted February 19, 2002 hey Royce,yeah I should but,I'm just glad to get it posted.I guess I get timed out from my logon while I'm searching for the correct wordage.Thats why the title is called dess instead of dress as my first attempt was named.I hate it when I work on a topic hit submit only to get "you are not logged on".Your a unix man right?Give me a superuser/root password.# DanielLOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
