    Water spots on windshield

    Try some distilled vinager. If that doesn't work, you can actually use some polish on it with a buffer to clean it up.

    2001 rear wheel width question

    But it will fill out the wheel wells nicer as well. No doubt though, the tire choices are slim.

    what does a clay bar do?

    Sealants are basically synthetic waxes. They are not natural products like traditional carnauba waxes. Basically, they are formulated with durability in mind. So as where you could expect typically about 1 month of protection out of a decent carnauba wax application, a good sealant will...

    2001 rear wheel width question

    I've heard that if you step the rim up to an 18" and if you're lowered, you'll clear the bolts in most cases.

    Cobra IRS wheel hop

    I'm about to change to 03 Bilsteins and H&R Race springs on my 99 from a 100% stock setup so I'll let you know how much of a difference that makes on my car. I'll be running 295 BFG Comp TAs for rubber.

    brake rattle?

    I had this same problem on my 99 Cobra. Turned out that the anti rattle clips that I installed that came with the pads I got from AutoZone were crap. They were a thinner steel material and they were not even shaped correctly to keep the calipers in there tight. So I ended up taking them off...

    Detailing

    While all these precautions are not absolutely necessary they are just that, precautions. When someone spends big time and/or money on getting a swirl free finish, they usually want to take every precaution to prevent re-introducing swirls or marring to the paint. Sure none of these techniques...

    Solidworks FR500 Wheel

    Cool. I never realized that there were so many CAD guys in here. I am a CAD admin at Thomas Built Buses (Freightliner, Diamler Chrysler). I've always been a ProE guy (we use ProE here at TBB) but the mothership (Diamler) has been pushing us to move to Catia V5. I've used Catia V5 a bunch but...

    Brake rust on rim?

    You pretty much have to order it on Meguiars.com. I can't find it anywhere locally.

    Detailing

    I think you'll be happy with either #26 or DG #105 although I think DG #105 is a bit more durable.

    Detailing and Paint Correction on my 99 Cobra

    This is some before and after for probably one of the most common problem areas of this style mustang... the rear third brake light lense. I don't know if I've seen a mustang this style without a crapped out lense. I guess it is the material. Process: Wet sand with 400 grit Wet sand...

    Detailing

    Figured I would post all the info I PM'ed for everyone else's benefit. Two bucket method is essentially using one bucket like you normally do (wash soap in it) and another with just plain rinse water. Then after every time you use your wash mitt instead of just throwing it back into the soap...

    Detailing and Paint Correction on my 99 Cobra

    Finished the job up by steam/extracting the interior with an Oreck Steamer. Sorry about the nasty clutch pedal... I'm about to replace it with the same as the other ones.

    Detailing and Paint Correction on my 99 Cobra

    It does dust up a little on a rotary but not on a DA (I used both a PC and a cyclo). But even on a rotary I like to mist my pads with one or two sprays of pad conditioner or QD'er before each pass which helps with that.
