Anyone know the difference between fast and slow panel wipe?

    ones faster than the other :p

    I prefer the slower one, as it gives you time to wipe off with a clean wipe before it evaporates. Fast is good for small panels though

    Fast is better in colder conditions where as you need slow for warm conditions.
    Typically in a bodyshop scenario, you would use slow in the booth prior to painting and fast out in the workshop

    Well its looking like 2k in body shop costs, then 3k in parts (found some engine niggles since last time) added to the 3k to buy...... tis adding up and my 7k budget is in a rather a poor state. And im expecting another 500 quid in bits and bobs that ive forgotten.

    Other than if you need to machine the engine cut the middle man out, do the work yourself.

    Vinay-RS. No. It was an accident damaged one when I was looking for a project. Took some major dimensions and realised that despite the look of it the shell was quite badly twisted so walked away. Shame as there was actually next to no rust.
