Big Sale Coming Soon - UPDATED 04-09-25 (01 Apr 2025)

I went on and published the Big Sale Page. It is on the main menu, mega menu, and off canvas menu.

The Big Sale isn't yet officially on but we do sell parts every day. There's still a lot of work and organizing to here do before that happens let alone the Spring rush is here. As it says on the page it is still under construction and the page isn't finished yet. I've had a ton of calls for parts here lately and the new page may help answer some questions about what is here before peeps call. I hope that page is also clear that we DO NOT SHIP anything...

It will probably happen sometime in May or June. If anyone needs a part we will most likely have it and plenty of them. I'll keep everyone posted as things progress.

Beautiful finish on the paint with deep luster......almost like 10 coats of poly on wood.....

It look that good because it's Urethane, it always looks that good. You'll have to use urethane for the base coat though. :)

Oh...still looks good....I was reading about it on their website and it mentioned it was developed for urethane but would cover anything....probably my mistake....how about the louvers cut into the hood though????

I keep reading about this stuff....guys use it a lot in the bike forums to coat gas tanks.....and use it over all types of paints.....Rustoleum, Valspar, Duplicolor....say wait a week....use precautions though like a full mask and paper suit.....this stuff can harden in the lungs....get into skin/eyes.......fuel protective coating is why they use it for tanks.....
This is over rustoleum......can't get the image to tag.....arggghhhh.......OK....I'll upload it then.....

Also.....I received this from the guy who is doing the D series resto....the pic in the first post.......

I actually talked to the Rustoleum rep and was told the cure time for Rustoleum rattle can paint is 72 hours. I waited twice that long, and then used 2K Spraymax and it is KILLER!!

I have prior contact with him....he bought some lug bolts from me for his build months ago......

Geno....maybe the Germans figured out how to make this stuff work with all base coats.....IDK....but folks are using it.....

You never know, technology is changing every day with this stuff. Longer term results will tell if it will actually last. :)
