rims without scratching them: #Mount the tire on the rim, but don't fill it up with air. #Mask the tire with paper, stuffing it in between the tire and the rim. #Paint the rim. You can paint around the back edge of the rim, along with the rest of it. #Remove the masking and inflate the tire. It will look like the tire was off the rim when it was painted. *To clean foam buffing pads while using them, use a cheap paint brush with the bristles cut off about halfway for stiffness. *Allow plenty of air circulation around your air compressor. Put it outside if possible, or point a fan at it. *Make paper templates for easy cutting and drilling. For more information and photos, see Brian Martin's article posted on the Hotrodders Bulletin Board: [http://www.hotrodders.com/forum/tip-day-13-a-71092.html Templates for accurate cutting and drilling]. *Before installing weld-on parts (core supports, quarter panels, rear panels, etc.), scuff the inside areas. It's easier to do this before parts are installed. *For doing small touchups without ending up with a huge repair area from sanding, cut sanding discs down to size. *To remove creases and dents from plastic bumpers, heat them with a heat gun, and work the area while it's hot. A wallpaper seam roller can be used to work dents out from the back side of the bumper, and a window screen bead installer can be used to push creases down from the front. Flex filler can be used for finishing. *When chemical stripping parts with heavy buildup: #Coat the panel heavily with stripper. #Cover with a cheap plastic drop cloth, or plastic wrap. #Let it stay covered at least an hour, but as long as overnight. #The stripper penetrates deeper when it won't dry out, and the plastic wrap makes it easier to remove. *If you want an entire part painted, finish it before installing it. Then, touch it up after it's been welded on. Although, this has been argued to be inefficient on a production basis, especially for parts that are not visible, and have been e-coated for adequate protection. *Be creative when sourcing patch metal. Potential sources include: **old refrigerators **old air conditioning units **old computer cases **fenders, roofs, or other body parts from vehicles *Use florescent "drop" lights, rather than incandescent. They create less heat, last longer, and are more resistant to shocks than incandescent bulbs. *Save old magnets that are being thrown away (from old car speakers, or refrigerator/freezer sealing strips, computer hard drives, etc.). They have many uses: #Place magnets over masking material to keep from blowing around. #Use magnets to hold fire blankets in place while welding. #Use a magnet in a plastic bag to pick up nails and screws. When done, turn the bag inside out; the metal parts are in the bag, and the magnet stays clean. #Put large magnets along the outside of a tool box, and tools can be suspended from the inside of the box. *Oil filter shells can be used for making recessed tail lights. They come in many different sizes, and the larger ones for commercial trucks may be especially useful. *To make a custom body grommet, use a section of vacuum hose that's been split down the middle with a razor or similar tool. A photo of this can be seen here: [http://hotrodders.com/gallery/showphoto.php/photo/17678/size/big/cat/500/page/ Hotrodders Photo Gallery]. *To pull weld studs easier than the pullers can that come with the cheap weld stud guns, weld a pair of vicegrips to a regular dent puller. They can be tack welded to a screw-on accessory and used as a new attachment. ==Questionable or disputed tips== These are tips that have been posted, either in this article or around the web, that may be disputed or otherwise questionable. *Modify a regular caulk gun to make a dual-cartridge caulk gun. More information and photos on this can be found in this [http://www.hotrodders.com/forum/tip-day-20-a-71736.html Hotrodders Bulletin Board discussion]. ''This tip was cautioned against because of potential problems with the accuracy of the mix ratio, and because dual-cartridge guns are not particularly expensive.'' *When applying body filler upside down, mix glue in with it to prevent it from falling. ''This tip was cautioned against due to concerns about potential chemical effects from mixing glue in with body filler. Instead, using a thicker brand of filler is recommended.'' ==History== This wiki article was written to compile the various "Tips of the Day" posted in the [http://www.hotrodders.com/forum/body-exterior Body-Exterior forum] on the Hotrodders Bulletin Board. The tradition of posting a "Tip of the Day" started with member jcclark, who posted the first Tip of the Day on August 26, 2005: [http://www.hotrodders.com/forum/tip-day-68901.html Displace the air inside cans of hardener]. jcclark went on to post the next two tips, after which other members continued the tradition. Member MARTINSR also made considerable contributions to the Tips of the Day. While termed "Tip of the Day", the tips weren't actually posted on a daily basis. For the first 50 tips, a tip was posted, on average, once every 6 days. On December 24th, 2005, after the 35th tip had been posted, the administrator of the Hotrodders Bulletin Board compiled all of the Tips of the Day into one post: [http://www.hotrodders.com/forum/body-exterior-tips-day-76946.html Body-exterior tips of the day]. On July 14, 2006, after the 53rd Tip of the Day was posted, this wiki article was made. Hopefully, all future tips will be added to the wiki article. Additionally, [http://www.roddingroundtable.com/tech/articles/sanding2.html Body Working Tips] by Carl Brunson, and [http://www.roddingroundtable.com/tech/articles/sanding2.html Sanding] from ''Wikipedia'' were used as references and sources for body working tips. ==References== #[http://www.hotrodders.com/forum/body-exterior-tips-day-76946.html Body-exterior tips of the day], ''Hotrodders
