paint inside or outside

Wish i would have had this stuff the time I used acetone to strip the chome off of two sets of Savage wheels so i could dye them. Ill never do that with acetone again.

Been a pretty cool little trick for some time now. I have stripped chrome off all kinds of stuff with it. If you have an ultrasonic cleaner it works even better.

I did use a respirator but it filled my apartment with fumes that I ended up breathing in afterward and made me feel quite ill for several hours. That was the first and last time I really used acetone. Could have been worse though. At least I was using a respirator while I was actually working with the stuff

Hey guys,

Have a P-L F-100 Tough-Color (black) body for install on my MT10. Wondering if I should do a PolyCarb back-up on the inside of the body?

Black is the molded in color and is opaque when held up to sunlight. No light comes through the body. P-L painting instructions that came with the body are generic for clear bodies. All the clears I have done have had a back-up or final sealing coat. Underside is a really shiny black. Not necessary for this tough-color? What think? 'AC'

Just be wasting paint unless you are changing colors or want a flat finish.
