    Paint experts...What causes this???

    was the part previously panted? Are you sure the primer is compatable with the paint you are using? I had this happen to me when I was painting my Dad's truck.

    Fish eye in clear?

    Is it only in the clear? When fish eyes are in the color, they are easy to hide. You just have to smoke in some color to fill them in.

    Fish eye in clear?

    fisheyes arent caused by dirt, those are nibs. Fisheyes are typically caused by silicone. We have had instances in the shop where someone is spraying tire shine on the side of the shop and it gets sucked into the intake of our booth and gets on the car.

    finally got my amp. I am running a Power Acoustik OV2-520. Just installed the box and hooked everything up. It sounds great. It isn't nearly as loud as my kickers, but it is plenty for what I need. These things really move!! What websites are good for uploading videos? I will try and put one up...

    amp wiring help

    I have a soundstream XTA 600.2. It is 150 watts RMS x 2 at 4 ohms, 300 watts RMS x 2 at 2 ohms. It also is 600 watts continuous bridged power. My question is, is the continuous power at 2 ohms? So at 4 ohms it would be 300 watts?

    Thanks for the compliments. I am very pleased with the outcome of the box. It is only my second mdf box. I am used to working with fiberglass. And this was my first attempt at carpeting.
