You are wrong too....















































Most important tool is a BFH /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
 
nah.. the BFH is just a variation of a hammer..







































"hammers are for nails, sledges are for k5's"
i forget who on here said that.. but its true and funny as hell /forums/images/graemlins/rotfl.gif /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif
 
Lets not forget I spent 30 mins watching how to properly polish my clear coat without dulling my paint.
If you have dented your truck at least twice as many times as you have washed it paint tips need not apply. (I'm gonna get blazed for that one /forums/images/graemlins/rotfl.gif)
 
Only blingers use clearcoat anyway. Real men use single stage paint. That way you can repaint easily. Plus, you'll never the the shine or depth out of clearcoat that you can get out of lacquer. Clearcaoting is too much like putting all your eggs in one basket for me.

Oh, and you know how he said not to use a large grinder for a buffer? That's exactly what I use--only mine has two speeds. Fast paint burner or extra fast paint vaporizer. I think that's why it only takes me three hours to wheel out a truck instead of three weeks.

As someone that has converted from nice paint and detailed vehicles to woodland pinstriping being the only detailing I have given up on nice paint... but I still shed a tear when I get a new dent. I have way too much money tied up in new sheet metal.
 
I was all hyped when they said, check out the 89 2 door Blazer, then it was that lowered junk.
 
i would agree on the single stage, except for metallics. single stage metallics suck. much better with base/clear.

Torches, to take apart, welder to put it back on!

Humm, thats 2 tools, I'm thinking more on the lines of a welder though. A welder can fix a LOT of stuff, if you know what you are doing.

That project "Copperhead" is raally kewl! But otherwise it is a joke! What ever happened to "Shadetree Mechanic"? I got more out of these 2 than anybody else. I'd gave anything for their shop!
 
Itchy enter button and then you double post, helps my post count though /forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif /forums/images/graemlins/rotfl.gif
 
Monster garage offers more wrenching advise than trucks and horsepower put together (I am dead serious). That is crazy to me. Which show has actually taught you more of the ins and outs?

Monster Garage ("all that is left to do is everything" - Jesse)
or
Trucks ("that guy's garage floor is cleaner than my kitchen counter" - my opinion)

May be I should start a poll in another, but very similar, post?
 
think about it though, take off your pants and start crawling around, I know when I wear shorts in the shop I regret it. If I had the money I'd have a shop like that, can't say it would stay so clean though.

It's easy to keep your shop clean when you have a cleaning crew that comes in after you've messed it up with your latest project. /forums/images/graemlins/rotfl.gif /forums/images/graemlins/rotfl.gif
