Correct. At the end of removal of the paint down to bare metal the whole car is washed down with a hand sprayer using some sort of water based material that neutralizes the bare metal and retards flash rust for about 72 hours, which is time enough to spray on a coat of sealer. Sealer will sand

Eh, not bad for the most part, maybe $3500-$4000? Looks pretty solid. I can’t believe someone would have a non-AC equipped car in AZ. Crazy. -D > On Apr 26, 2020, at 11:44 AM, Bob Rentfro via Mercedes > wrote: > > A little crazy on account of the corona. > > Bob R > > > 1974 Mercedes

Re: [MBZ] When you have to have all the stallions outside because you are refinishing furniture in the garage

DC area had record snowfall this winter - zero inches (literally). Perhaps in consequence, we are having a brutally chilly spring with temps. in the 50s to low 60s and rain showers every other day. Other than cucumbers my seedlings are way behind the norms for this time of year. In a month I'll

I toyed with running the S210 (98 E320) wagon at 55 versus 65 on my short commute to see if it had any noticeable effects. It’s only 20 miles of the 38 or so daily when I was doing it, but I figured it might make a difference. And the difference driving 55 mph for 20 miles versus 65 mph can’t

Yeah, we had record rainfall on Friday and Saturday. Badly needed as we actually went over six weeks with no measurable precipitation (none in March at all!) Now I’ll need to cut the back 40. Might take me all of 10 minutes. While I’m not terribly keen about the proximity of my neighbors,

It's keeping the speed down that does it, if I let it get over 70mph it'll barely make 50mpg on the way to work which loses 600' of elevation. Curt Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android On Sun, Apr 26, 2020 at 12:26 AM, Bob Rentfro via Mercedes wrote: Jeez, Curt. That is really good. The best

Best I've ever done in the Golf is 47.5, but then I have to stop 15 times on the way to work, 17 if I hit the lights wrong on the "short" route. Rear brakes drag, in the process of changing the rear rotors (as soon as it quits raining!) so that should go up a little. My brother routinely got

Re: [MBZ] Fwd: 1989 Mercedes 300E 4 door Project car

In Florida it’s an absolute. A car without AC takes a huge hit on the market if you’re selling. Might not be nearly as bad for someone like AZ Bob, as they don’t have the humidity we do. That’s why it’s necessary. I can deal with the heat, but not with the humidity. The W123 LWB didn’t have AC,
