Now, when you mention "windfest" is that in reference to the weather, or to "hot air" that will certainly flow from our gatherings (and that would be "hot air" of the *talking* variety. I'll refrain from Mexican food on the drive up. Although, I can't promise I won't have Pinto Beans and Cornbread if I find a nice little country restaurant along the way. )

@ seraphim
Your german is very good. I don't know very perfect write on english, but I try and the more I write, the better it goes! Much greetings. @ everybody An other solution to dry the Molyslip faster could be to use air pressure spray (or airkompressor), like for airbrush or clean electromotors. Kusi |

Head light lens plastic
Quote:
1) The combination UV resistant/scratch resistant coating failing and getting cloudy. 2) The base polycarbonate being attacked by UV light and breaking down getting cloudy. As far as separating the lens from the housing, these two components may be glued (haven't looked at my headlight housings), but they are usually welded using vibration (low frequency, hugh amplitude) or ultrasonic (high frequency, low amplitude) energy. The two halves are loaded into a nest and the welding head advances, energy is applied to the mating surfaces and the two halves are melted together. You can separate the halves, but you typically will destroy one or both of the pieces.

@ Mr. Pockets
My frontlights are also plastic or as "wawazat??" says polycarbonat (lexan). This is the same material like the lexanbodies of the rc-modelcars. With the same spray I clean also from time to time my modelcarbodies outside from dusty etc. Till now, it doesn't damage never something. -------- @ aredubjay Donnerwetter, dann können wir ja in Zukunft in Deutsch schreiben (in the future we can write on German hehehe) -------- I don't can give warranty, that my method works on every cases of fog inside on the glass. On my lights it was coatet, but not extreme strong. If it's maybe stronger grey, it won't go away 100%, but it will be better. Maybe it has for buy a special spray or cleaner for lexan. But it has also go away from self, because I don't see a big chance to clean the glas through this little bulp-hole with something like a big pipcleaner etc. But if we think all about this, someone will maybe have the ultimate solution. In every case, I find this SVX Network really very cool and good for talk with other SVX-drivers. And in the same way, I can learn better write English Kusi Last edited by SVXCH; 10-17-2001 at 01:39 PM. |

cleaning headlights
easy fix everyone.
Most 92s (like mine) are way beyond any kind of cleaners or waxes. at the body shop...we use...good old Sandpaper.. 1500 grit and wet sand it good and smooth. Then follow it with 3M rubbing compound and rub it clean and bright. all clean, just sand off all that road goo. I do it to Lexus', Benz's, etc. makes the lights stay bright and clear. hope this helps.. Its soo easy to do that I carry the stuff with me in my car so I can do other SVX's that I see. It's and easy fix and great way to introduce yourself to another SVX owner. any questions or details on wet sanding just pm me or post up. thx |

headlights
why would anyones headlights be dirty inside? they must be joking. I just bought a set of headlights today from a junkyard.
they were out of a 92 SVX thats been there since 93 the SVX was totaled do to the FIRE burning up every part of the car. and of course the headlights were nasty poo gross... and of course my fix worked and now they look brand spanky new. if your inside of your headlights are dirty, then you put sand and dirt in them when you changed your bulbs. :P I see you've been busy Aredubjay... been awhile since I've seen you on yahho, and yes.. its still the yellow color that you hate SVX |

Yeah, when I change the bulbs I always put sand and dirt inside that it's hold better
Ok, serious. I saw here in Switzerland many cars with this problem, it's not only a SVX problem. BMW 3 Series, Audi A4 (first model), VW Golf 3 and many other. This shows only, that it's have a wide range of qualitiy from the car parts. One car have this problem not, same model from an other driver has a bad light in the car who become grey inside after short or longer time. I saw here also 92er SVX with no fog-problems inside the lights, but a 1997er who have this fog inside. So, it's like russian roulette Kusi Last edited by SVXCH; 10-18-2001 at 05:56 AM. |
