#10 of 1025 HELP!! by land_yacht Jan 02, 2002 (12:29 pm)
I have little/no patience/skill when it comes to painting. I just purchased an '84 Town Car with a pretty good paint job. It's not faded or oxidized but it does have a few chips and scratches in it. My question is: Am I better off having the entire care re-painted or can I just get the blemishes taken care of and have the finish still look good?   Thanks in advance,   Land Yacht Replies to this message: aallred (Jun 23, 2006 6:50 pm)

#12 of 1025 bumper... by ochizon Jan 16, 2002 (9:18 pm)
I have some rust on my bumper from a small accident. I was planning on simply sanding down the rusted areas, covering up the rest of the car with plastic, and repainting the bumper with some flat black paint that i bought at the store. Is there anything wrong with my plan of action? Do I need to put primer first? Or is the flat paint enough?   Thank you,   Alex

If you take the bumper to bare metal you will need a primer...if not you can just go with the flat black

You need a good paint for bumpers. Don't just spray it with any old thing. Buy good paint made for the purpose. Replies to this message: rt24 (Mar 25, 2005 12:11 pm) cornellpinoy (Mar 26, 2005 5:55 am) Mr_Shiftright (Mar 28, 2005 8:08 am)
#18 of 1025 egged by boopoppa Feb 02, 2002 (5:13 pm)
i was egged last night and after washing today, i found what i think is the point of impact. can an egg be thrown hard enough to cause visible scratches by the broken shell? or am i just seeing residue from the egg? i tried some bug/tar remover to no avail
#19 of 1025 Severe oxidation and fading on 95 Acura Integra by kcinnamon Feb 04, 2002 (7:24 pm)
I have a 95 Acura Integra LS that has severe paint oxidation on the entire hood and roof. This car has spent the majority of its life in the garage and has been well taken care of. Does anyone out there have any suggestions for dealing with Acura? Or has anyone else had problems like this with their Acura. Or have any suggestions on how to fix it, we've tried several products to no avail, they just seem to be making the problem worse. It looks downright awful and is embarrassing to drive around because it looks so bad.   Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!!
