Windshield decal
shmedley replied to Intimidator Jim's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
Anything on the windshield will pretty much be like this. Couple years ago during drag week quite a few people had the windshield banner letters flying off while driving as they put rain-x on before the sticker -

Neither, Sentinel. I had the choice to go to Westmont or Downers Grove North. Not a fan of Mustangs then or now for that matter 🤣

Have you put new clear coat on polished rims?
shmedley replied to sahls01gmc's question in Wheels, Tires, Trim, & Undercarriage
I have stripped,sanded and polished a set of factory aluminum wheels in the past. Never re-cleared them as the car they are on never sees bad weather. I used aircraft stripper on them. I had to do it a few times to each wheel (80's dodge wheels) Take your time and use the stripper in a well ventilated area. Best thing would to remove the tires also, no telling what the stripper would do to the tires. -
@RayS My old man bought a demo 83 Charger back in 84 because I liked the sunroof and how big it was and I was kinda hooked on these little cars since then. (Which my pleasantly round self can still fit through today) He drove that till he gave it to me when I got my license in 95, with only doing basic maintenance to it, until I killed it of course. I do remember going past dealers and seeing them back in the day cause it looked like the car we were in and I wanted one then.

that looks like more of an anodizing issue then anything. I have had some paintball equipment in the past that depending on the alloy of aluminum used after a while being in the sun and heat it would turn to that same color that your rims did.

I can try to help at somepoint. Time has been thin for me working on my car. I haven't even a chance to do it to my truck yet

North of the tracks buy a few blocks. I still owe you a frosty beverage next time you come visit your parents on the south side.

Tips in cleaning a dirty engine filter?
shmedley replied to sensahboh's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
That's a regular paper filter. Like @falcaineer said just replace it. Dealer, local parts store, rock auto or amazon should all have it -
I'm in Downers Grove area myself. you looking for someone to help you with it or have someone do it?
