THE CLEANUP

wannabeimportkiller · May 26th, 2007, 09:13 PM

well as most of you know I painted my doors last weekend and they looked pretty good. the downside is the top of the door, yes the soft vinyl stuff, well the paint wasnt sticking and was very sticky. so i took it upon myself this afternoon to get the paint off the door. heres how it is coming so far.

o here are the "tools" i used

A Pain

o you dont even know ive used that goo gone and a rag and scrubbed, i cant even feel my thumb or fingertips. the rag got so hot from scrubbing. o and where could i get some dye.

ESG-642T · May 26th, 2007, 09:42 PM

you could, since your doors are gonna be fcked up anyway....

Just sand down your door and try painting them that way. I think all major auto-part stores sell interior dye...]

wannabeimportkiller · May 26th, 2007, 09:45 PM

cool, there not ruined there coming pretty clean, which totally suprised me.

JASonic · May 26th, 2007, 10:03 PM

dude.. omg! Im feeling real bad for you after looking at that pick. The goo gone is working huh? That stuff is pretty good. I use it for all kinds of stuff. Its still alot of labor. Take a vicodin now before tomorrow morning!

wannabeimportkiller · May 26th, 2007, 10:07 PM

lol yeh tell me about it, it aint gonna be easy gettin the rest of that off, then i gotta go start on the other door

JASonic · May 26th, 2007, 10:13 PM

oh shit ! I used to sell jan-san stuff. The orange oil in goo gone should do the trick with a little elbow as you've said. If you have the same plastic kinda doors as I have then the goo gone shouldnt hurt it either. You ever think about just repainting those suckers anyway?

wannabeimportkiller · May 26th, 2007, 10:14 PM

yeh ima get some dye though, I hear it actaually works

wannabeimportkiller · May 26th, 2007, 10:15 PM

the paint i had just wasnt bonding to the soft part, the rest of the door was dry in like 20 minutes, but i think the top has some kind of rubber in it which that paint obviously doesnt like

JASonic · May 26th, 2007, 10:16 PM

oh ya, I seen it up there in the top. What is it? Like a dye for the plastic?

wannabeimportkiller · May 26th, 2007, 10:17 PM

the paint i used?

JASonic · May 26th, 2007, 10:27 PM

my bad, I dont drink often and I had a few tonight ( with one of my brothers earlier, found out today he's gettinga divorce... bummer for him) anyway, I get it now. You tried the paint and got bad results, as shown above. Now your going to try a "dye". Ive never heard of a dye for plastic/vinyl. Thats cool. I hope it works great for you. Maybe you can post some more pics after you get er done.

wannabeimportkiller · May 26th, 2007, 10:30 PM

yeh i willl

scubasteve041186 · May 27th, 2007, 01:25 AM

what kind of dye are you lookign at? last time i paint my vinyl crap i had to do some hard core light coats over and over and over and OVER just to get it too look right without any streaks or beading... never again will i attempt it haha and why aren't the pictures working for me
