Wipe-on clear coat FAIL! Don't ruin what you have!
Переглядів 1,6 тис.Місяць тому
Wipe-on Patina. Lots of folks are marketing it. One company specifically markets it as a remedy for peeling and damaged clear coats. So, we tried it on a 1998 Silverado with peeling and damaged clear coat. Not the worst we've seen, but needing some love. DO NOT TRY THIS until you watch this video. Sometimes things are too good to be true! #freedom #patina #productreview

We tried science to clean rust from a fuel tank. Do or die attempt!
Переглядів 762 місяці тому
The fuel tank gets dropped back out of the 1962 Binder pickup because the fuel starvation issues persist. We've already tried the physical rust removal but apparently that ain't enough. So let's give science a try at it and if that doesn't work you might get to watch us install a fancy new fuel tank at the end of this one. Odds... the typical roller coaster as we battle this rusty tank! #freedo...

1958 Buick Special Dynaflow surgery to STOP THE BLEEDING!
This was a good video. very informative. Don't waste money on the manual jobs from Harbor freight. I got one. it's usable, but man it's a pain In the ass. between the beas buster and that I could've bought a coats 20/20.. kinda upset at myself now..
Bead buster. not beas. that alone was 250 and I see these coats goin for 300 all the time. that's a damn deal. not so fancy as the new ones but they work just as good.
Is that float plastic? It kinda looks like brass
Hi! My name is Tom. You don't have an 8N or a 9NFord but a 2N even though it 's serial number starts with 9n????. Henry Ford was a sharp business man. The war board froze the 1941 year models prices on all tractors for the duration of the war as well as limiting the total numbers to be made. That is why the 9n and 2n were so close to the same but just enough different so Ford could increase the price. Then in 1947 the 48 models came out with for speed trans, both brakes on the right side, draft/posision control hydraulics and running boards from the factory. The war years also had aluminum dashes grills since steel was needed for guns, tanks etc. As for the plumbing on the right side of the trans; if you used two heavy angle irons from the drawbar to the center of the three point hitch you can use the three point hitch lever with a one way cylinder to raise a mowers or other light equipment. To test the hydraulic system pump all you have to do is put the lift lever in the raised position and use a philips screwdriver in the pto shaft hole to rock the shaft back and forth one half of a turn it should raise the arm slowly. Tom.
Some original outer seals had a lip for the “dust” cover to grip. Your kit eliminated this. 1955 service manual said it would catch drips. Had a repro one rot out in a year but the people who made your kit did not make good saying ATF damaged it. So I got a big fernco from plumbing supply, trimmed it and used large hose clamps to catch drips. Loosen the front one to drain the ATF occasionally. Been there for 18 years and 25k miles. Got the kit you used but never installed it.
Nice mods not overly done
I would imagine kissed by the piston rather than warping. If the motor got that hot all the metal would contort. Its more likely that because of the extra heat in the cylinder head the valve shaft got tight in the valve guide and was slowed to the point where i came in slight contact with the piston.
No gasket for the cover
Vinegar. Melts rust.
Decent results from straight bar on head surface.
@@dalepeter8392 sounds like you’re on the right track!
The 58 Fergie Peter Dale, removed head, lapped very rusty valves, now all seated well, will see from 105, 70, 45, 102 to improved compressions, the cylinder walls are smooth, no rusty pits. Waiting head gasket sets.
Check into getting you an air palm hammer, that is what is used at the plant to install weather stripping. Saves fingers and wrists.
Again, thank you for comments, after ran a little: comp readings: 105, 73, 45, 102. Can I try in those options 1, tighten head bolts, hope stop leaks 2. using head gasket restore fluid; 3. use gasket maker on existing gasket, as there is no water in cylinders; 4. new gasket .
@@dalepeter3016 you could have a failure between 2 and 3. Compression moving back and forth in the now shared space. I would shy away from the “fix in a bottle. It’s easy enough to pop the head off and have a lookie. If it is the gasket your numbers should improve and life would be happy. If you see scratches or glazing in the cylinders and no sign of gasket failure then it’s time to think about pulling pistons and loving up the cylinders.
@@freedom1garage Good advices. Re-horn tugs and new rings will be a long term fix for sure. I had success on a V8 350 marine engine, 120-40 psi, ran poorly, after a bottle of Engine Restore, all read 140 lbs, very surprised with the results, it still run very well a year later. I II try it on this old Fergie once I gain upper hand on water leaks.....
Way cool man
@@BareRoseGarage thanks brother! You’re lighting up your channel lately, keep it up!
Fuel it first
My 58 MF has low compressions 105 70 40 75, would puff here and there. Not sure if it need total rebuilt.
45-75 are low numbers and likely why it won't start and run. However, there's signs of life and it could be possible to re-ring it, hone the cylinders and enjoy. I'd try it! Thanks for watching!
Great. before it ran, oil was ok, I got it running, now a lot of water is in oil, I must blown the head gasket without governor hooked up, a screaming engine! I refill water, it leaked into oil over night. Do I need remove head to see what happens?
Was it pushing the coolant out?
If I remember correctly, there was no external coolant leak but the engine kept overheating and coolant was disappearing. Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much for sharing your experience in detail. I was pretty sure just from the title of the video what the primary issue was. I had some similar struggles with those types of products. My truck is at least 1/3 bare metal. As such, I need to protect it from moisture. Over the past couple of years I've had to sand off surface rust and re-apply a wipe on coating at least 4 times. The 1st 3 times I used something that was ready to go, no mixing. This last go round, I used that same product AND a 2 part coating. For my situation, the primary problem has been contamination on the metal, causing it to flash rust. Each time that I've had to re-apply has been a learning experience. 1) Those wipe on pads are the worst! I don't understand why they include those in the kit or why any company selling a similar product would recommend any type of cotton cloth. Last year, I discovered that a new, dry, "streak free" glass cleaner wipe leaves behind little to no lint. I also noticed a bit of a smoother finish. It doesn't do any good to start with a super, super clean surface just to end up with fuzz left behind from whatever you use to apply a coating. 2) temp and humidity are a factor for sure. Especially over bare metal. That stuff will trap the moisture from the air. 3) As to the pot life and working time of the 2 part product, I used half the amount of activator. It was quite a bit easier to work with. The downside to that is that over time, it may not be as durable. Idk. What I do know is that after almost a year (and minimal exposure to rain and snow), this last application has held up well.
You're correct, a change in mixture ratio should stop the immediate flash off, but I'd rather just have a less aggressive catalyst. As far as applicators go, a tightly folded microfiber would work better... heck anything would have worked better! Thanks for watching and sharing your experience!
I have had my share of paint products that didn’t work. No fun. My brother’s F-150 was in the same situation as that truck was in. I decided to skip it all and just bought a gallon of single stage enamel and we scuffed and shot it in a weekend.
🤷♂️ man , for 1000$ and all of that work it’s not what one would expect and you leaving that sticker residue on it after doing all of that work and spending all of that money was pure lazy and lack of integrity for your work
Sticker residue. You're funny. It's the faded paint after the residue was removed.
@@freedom1garage then I stand corrected and I apologize
It's all good.
That's not the factory clear coat, you can easily see that the clear never fuse with the paint under.
Yes it is. A very common issue with GM.
Great video! only change i would make is its a C60 not a C6500. that way people looking for your video might find it easier. I have a 1965 C60 myself and they are great trucks! SLOW but powerful with gearing reduction.
I've never been able to appreciate this patina craze...unless you're building a rat rod. How did visible rust become "cool"??? I just don't get it.
We like patina and it makes "restoration" much more affordable. GOOD finish body and paint work is tens of thousands of dollars.
It’s funny cause I did this to my car that’s not even patina lol it had decent clear coat and I just made it shinier
There’s a reason Derek from VGG only sprays this stuff on now. He’s done one wipe-on project that I’ve seen, everything else has been spray out. Wonder why?
Yup
We had the same experience. It’s junk, total junk. And they make the sauce that Vice Grip Garage sells. I’m waiting for the class action suit to be filed. It’s…..horrible.
Later this fall I’m going to be doing my first paint job on my work truck going with a single stage root beer…. You’re welcome to come help
If by help ya mean watch ya work, sure thing!

This was a great video! I have heard horror stories about taking these dynaflow converters apart ("you'll never get it back together again") but now I'm not so afraid of anymore :) Fingers crossed for mine to keep being dry on the outside, though.
Take your time. We have faith in ya!
I hear you, a welcome place to work and escape the heat. Spray foamed mine and it’s great . Just need to keep the doors closed and minimize what you bring in and out. Thx
Exactly!
Why didn't you expect it? If it's warm in winter, it'll be cool in summer.
Ummm, I installed heat for winter. But 20-25 degrees cooler on a 100 degree day. Waaayyy better than I expected. Thanks for watching!
Definitely a need for any sized shop, make sure to atleast have a small (even a bedroom one) and a fan. (Definitely need something bigger for your shop) But for a garage that’s all you need. Have you insulated the garage door/ exterior doors? We have a “swamp cooler” that can cool down a shop your sized in 30 minutes. Definitely worth following for more updates ❤❤❤
It’d sad people die unnecessary for air show😢😢😢😢😢

wow! that sucks. It looks awful in this stage. Don't show the owner 😮 Sorry that turned out like that. I'm sure you'll have it shinin bright .and need of shades.
I was able to get it straightened out but man was it a ton f extra work. Long format video coming soon! Thanks!
It has higher pressured air
Great video thanks 😊
Thank you!
Why didn't you clean all the crap off everything before you started? Everything you touched was dirty. Then you could have chucked some paint around for corrosion protection.
It'll get spruced up soon. We've got some neat plans for the mini that'll make it one of a kind! Stay tuned!
