Windshield Wiper
I dislike my painted black windshield wipers so I am thinking about stripping the paint back so they're stainless (?) steel again. My problem is, how do I do it! Theyre so intricate that I think the only way to get all the paint off is if I could soak them in some sort of acid which would just strip the paint right off. Does such a liquid exist? Also, the whole thing is black. Originally, was it all unpainted or was the bit which attaches to the blade painted black? Basically, what should it look like? Thanks for your time!

My hose is too long !!!
My COOLANT hose that is ... The hose shown in the pic attached (thanks ken for the pic!!) is too long on my car - it has a kink in it so I guess not as much coolant is getting through as there is supposed to. I figure I can just cut a bit off the end, but I'm not sure if when I take the hose off whether coolant will spray everywhere! I undid the clamp a little bit and coolant sorta dripped/spurted out - the engine was cold btw. Can I take the hose off without having to flush all the coolant out ?

avoiding rust traps
When I bought my Z at the beginning of this year, it was rusty in a few areas and after several weeks I noticed that the rust was growing - FAST! I installed a little device which is attached onto the firewall that sends some sort of electricity though the entire body of the car. Somehow it stops the rusting process. Since then (about 6 months) I have noticed no evidence of the rust growing at all, except in one area where I *think* there might be more bubbles... Now yes I know a lot of people snicker at the thought, but I would recommend it to anyone. It does however cost a pretty penny - about $200-$300 USD. It connects directly to the battery too, so I don't know if it would be such a great idea if you were storing your car... But ya, I'll be putting one on my next car!

That's MonarO Mike ! But yeah, teh Falcadores (Aussie slang meaning both Ford Falcon and Holden Commodore - they are practically the same car with a different skin) are a hell of a lot of car for the money... Not that I endorse them or anything - I'd much rather 4 pristine 240Z's
