How long does the Flex-Coat take to dry?


It gets pretty stiff after 30 minutes or so, but it will still
feel tacky for several hours.

Useful gluing, painting, and varnishing tip: Put a dab of
your glue (or paint or varnish) on a piece of scrap, and then
when you get the urge to touch something to see if it has
dried yet, touch the scrap, so you don't leave a permanent
fingerprint on your project.

It probably shouldn't be necessary to add, but.......

Be sure the scrap piece is the same material.....or, at least as similar as
possible. Paint, glue, varnish, etc., will not behave the same on a piece
of scrap cardboard or even bare wood as they will on something that has
already been sealed with a previous coat of whatever or that is inherently
non-porous.

Wolfgang
fingers, hair, upholstery, lips, pets and clothing are generally also
unsuitable.....albeit for somewhat different reasons.

Stanley, ID.

Where were you when I put disk brakes on my daughter's '66 Mustang?


You put disk brakes on a '66 Mustang using nothing but your
Leatherman ?

Uh, did I say that?

Because it rusted away in a scrapyard 20 years ago?

Nah. I don't have a Leatherman, so I can't put disc brakes on it.


Besides, it needs a new water pump and I can't FIND the darned thing!

:-)

It's right next to the torque converter.

That could be reasonably inferred from context you snipped.

Installing disk brakes on a '66 Mustang with only a Leatherman is so
patently absurd that only a complete moron would take it seriously,
regardless of context.

So you used the appropriate tools ? How foolish. With a little
ingenuity you could have figured out a way to install them on
the cheap.

And weekly heaping servings of powder blue is *good* for you ?
Face it old friend, football season is no time for a Tar Heel
to be harping about anybody else's ****ed up sense of reality.

On the other hand, I did pay good money to sit outside on what
promises to be a raw, chilly, drizzly night to watch my Illini
get eviscerated by Penn State. If I have any sense at all, and
that's not at all likely, I'll leave at halftime, walk home,
start a fire in the fireplace and watch the first game of the
World Series on the tube.

I didn't buy any new tools.
