Brian’s (B2) Blog – Wheels Go Round…

Ah yes one of my favorite segments……..because I am the only one on camera. LOL! Alright that’s enough of that!

Anyways in this weeks webisode we take care of a much-needed wheel upgrade on the Elco. No DONKS on this ride! This is a muscle car! We get a hold of a nice new set of aluminum Torque Thrust wheels and paint’em up! Wow, paint a brand new pair of wheels??? Who would do such a thing!? We do and so can anyone else! We break out our Wheel Paint Line and two tone these wheels something fierce and I think you will love the end result. Once the new shoes get mounted up with those raised white letters and two tone Torque Thrusts, it really starts to bring the Elco together. Check it out!!!

Next week we dive in head first into the interior of this ride. MAN WHAT A MESS!!! It is pretty amazing how we turn a 30 year old interior into something worth saving with our Vinyl and Fabric Paint.

Brian’s (B3) Blog – Restoration From Within…

admin — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 13:22:21 +0000

We knew we couldn’t cut any corners on the “half and half” project when we started and this week was no exception. When we pulled that nasty blue carpet off the interior floor we were surprised at the amount of rust we found. This was one of the rare instances where we actually worked on both halves of the car. It didn’t make sense to only treat half of the rust because anything untreated would have continued to spread and ultimately ruin our project. At Dupli-Color® we aim to restore, restyle and protect any project, so we were obligated to stop the rust out of basic principle (and a little common sense).

Our first step was to sand all the surface rust, which helps to identify the really affected areas. After we cleaned it up we went right to the Rust Fix® application, which basically stops rust on contact. We treated the entire floor just to be safe and then it was on to the door panels. The door panels had definitely seen better days and were really faded from 30yrs worth of sun exposure. You’ll see in the episode how we drenched these with Prep Spray… I think we cleaned them at least 3 times. We stuck with a black them on the interior and just used some Silver Vinyl & Fabric Paint for accents. Personally, I think the transformation was remarkable, but I’ll let you decide.

Want to see how to give a 30yr old car a well-needed facelift? Check it out and you’ll be amazed at the results. Make sure to stay tuned next week when we tackle the most distinctive part of the Elco; the truckbed!
