    fresh paint on the trac

    Great job! I think you chose nice color combinations. I think the price sounds reasonable I know how much work goes into a paint job and I think it looks very nice.

    ck- Due to you needing the fresh paint go for the custom. Depending on what you choose it may cost about the same as a fresh base coat. If you keep the same base color chances are you won't need the door jams painted so it shouldn't hit the budget too terribly hard. Mel

    Trac got keyed!! NEW PAINT JOB!!!

    BIG D has a great idea. The pearl overcoats can really add to a paint job. Midnight blue or black cherry are usually the best choices.

    attn: Black Trac owners, u gotta try this!

    M-RON cleans and the M-RON deep clean reconditions the paint. Basically if your finish has a dull finish use the deep clean. I think it will also take care of swirl marks. Mel

    attn: Black Trac owners, u gotta try this!

    Jeff- Just to let you know the LVC is best for the rubber trim around the windwos and interior it is not great for the tonneau. The tonneau is powder coated so the LVC is not really the right product to use. LVC will make the leather and vinyl shine but not slick like some products. Mel

    Bart- I am so glad that you tried the M-Ron. I donated it along with the LVC. Our long time friend developed this product. It is very well recieved in the trucking industry with the show trucks. We give this product to our customers. It is one of the few products safe to use on fresh...

    When and Where is the 2007 National Meet? DETAILS PLEASE!! (attn Todd Z)

    Seriously guys the time Todd and Rachel spent was considerable. The Farm was great and I feel the price was reasonable. Have any of you ever been to an event in the auto industry? With what Todd prepared and Ford sponsered not one person should complain. There is a show the young kids attend...

    painting flames

    Jim says the best way is to use 1/16 inch fine lineto tape the design. Or if you can get some low tac contact paper (you can check with a vinyl sign cutter). After applying the low tack vinyl you would cut the design out with a new razor blade don't cut into the paint. Type of paint must be...

    Question to members about ST Events..What is your thought?

    I would like to see meets in our area. But, planning is the key and knowing far enough in advance. I am fortunate in that I work a 12 hour shift and have every other weekend off. It fell right in line for Louisville this week. We tavel to semi truck shows all over the country for Jims...

    local event

    Chuck- I am from close to Dayton, Ohio and am not aware af any in the state. The National meet this weekend in Louisville is the closest that I am aware of. I know there have been meets in Maryland. If you have time I believe it would be worth your while to attend Louisville. Mel

    Super glue on black Sport Trac! Help

    I would say that Adam has the answer. My husband does custom paint for a living and he said he just did this on a customer car this week. He will wet sand it with 1,500 grit sand paper then rubbing compound. You may need to get a variable speed buffer to buf it out. He said Jeffs idea with...
