TRUTH...The factory covers as minimal of an area needed to protect that part of the rocker so they won't have to do warranty paint work. On a white car, tire dressing and the road dirt thrown from the front tires will outline the material. You can clean it so it won't look so bad. Also you can...
If you have some aged material on the car, you can park it in the sun, slowly and gradually pull it off. If you take it slow all of the adhesive will come with it. This is what you WILL find after a successful removal. The paint under the film is fallout, contaminant free and will look better...
There are companies that can replace the aged material on your car. Then it will look new again. First things first. Tire dressing destroys the material. Dust and dirt eat away at the material. The edges are also very visible. Since the front tires are constantly blasting the impact material...
There are different miles thicknesses of the Clear film. Some have a hard surface coating that can be polished if slightly marred some don't have a surface coating at all. Some are self healing.
BUYER BEWARE!
If you are very very price concious.. you will get what you pay for. Find someone...
Hello first vette.
I am a clear film installer. I have been doing it for 13+years. The material has evolved greatly over the years. All of the negative stuff you hear is old stories that won't die. Putting a thin fabric over the car for short trip is OK but you do have to remove it to free up...
Has anyone experienced idle surge while sitting in traffic, foot on brake with an auto trans? I've had this problem for about two years. Simptoms are as follows. Outside air temp is about 75° or higher, car is at full warm temp about 210° and with the a/c on or off the car idle can surge approx...
That new Z06 owner was a true rookie. Had he read his owners manual, it states right in the book to make sure the tires are at performace tempurature before driving hard.:v
There are many theories about film on paint and no film. Here is some truth that is often overlooked. Todays paint is applied with fewer coats than cars of old. Todays paint is also an environment friendly paint that can absorb bug acid faster than older cars. Dull bug stains will never come...
I have read all the posts above as I too own a 94 C4..... (all great information and spot on) and I toyed with the idea of changing out the rotors etc... After deciding on how I really want to drive the car, I found a high temp DOT4 fluid, rebuilt the calipers and thankfully, the pistons were...
In my past life brakes were my forte. There is a vacuum pressure guage that you can use to test the booster. You may be able to rent it from a local autoparts store. Also you can look on line for your model car's brake specs for booster pressure. If you are unsure of what to do...take it to a...
Thanks to all that have posted on my new member post. Currently sitting in front of the tv looking out the window watching it snow. Cannot wait for spring and hitting the road tours.
Hello members of CAC. I'M new to the forum and an owner of a clean low mileage 94 Vette coupe of 3 years. Color is Black Rose. I have to say that I love it. In my 3 years I've done several things minor things to it which seam to be normal. Rubber seals, A/C unit, & tires. Can't complain about...
