The "how-to" suggested is really good. Just bare in mind that is a complete panel whereas DIY you wouldn't be looking at spraying the complete quarter so you would have to blend in the spray which fro ... |

Depends on how you like to keep your car. Personally I wouldn't dream of spraying that panel with anything other than the right stuff... dust free room, compressor, gun etc! And experience! |

Doesn't a coolant cap have a pressure release valve ? - so that if there is too much of a pressure build up it can release as an overflow and would cause this? I'm sure I came across that somewhere, c ... |
