I tried extending a thread on the originality forum, but not much luck there:
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=152778 Anyone have photos of an original or 100% properly restored 914-6 showing the rear fender wells and bottom side of the rear trunk? It seems like black undercoating is never right as it was just applied by the dealers or ports (or something), and besides it's ugly. So, it seems like the good options for these areas appears to be: 1. metal -> primer -> body color paint 2. metal -> primer -> grey PVC undercoating 3. metal -> primer -> grey PVC undercoating -> body color paint Or ? -Steve |

Scotty B's is nicer and has 10 HP more due to the red anodizing. I'm jealous!
The multi sprayer is cool because it also has the fittings and extension hoses for cavity wax. I like it due to its flexibility. Wurth makes a Shutz gun for use with the larger bottles, Waxing external panels and Stone Guard like VW does on current models. I have one but have never used it for that purpose. It does have a high output adjustable nozzle which may work better at lower pressure for that pebble peel look. Have to give it a try to see if it has other than Shutz use Attached image(s) |
