Podiums with his own hands in 2108
Many people know how to make the podium for the "textile" technology. If we judge by the information that comes in late, in the manufacture of professional and amateur designs the technology pushed more labor-intensive and sophisticated technology. In applying these technologies is used polyurethane foam. And yet, this technology early to write off because it can easily make podiums without special fitting. You can make perfect in its form podiums. This can be seen on the example of making the podium, designed for the WHA 2108. To begin, we take 2 rings, the height and diameter should be slightly more tweeters. This is to ensure that it is possible to install them flush. Then we take: epoxy, sewer PVC pipes (50 mm), a piece of knitted material, hot melt glue, sandpaper and filler having a composition of glass. Also need vinyl or antigravy with paint Eska 5104, which can be used as a decorative material. First we need to clean off coating from the surface of the rack. To do this, use the medium grit sandpaper. Pre-defined ring binds in the appropriate places melting. The resulting product should obtyanut piece of knitted material. Then sew the edge and gently span fabric. Now it is necessary to dissolve the epoxy. At first glance this procedure seems to be very simple. But in reality it is not. If Nedolya hardener, then freezing will last very long, and if it is poured - the resin will be very fragile. Do not rush to apply resin to the surface. First drip it onto paper, nagreem tile or a soldering iron. If you lit it properly, gum boil. When the resin has cooled, it could easily be broken. If not, add a little more hardener. Saturate fabric with epoxy resin. Do not forget to leave a site in the center of the circle without impregnation. It is necessary to avoid bloating. Typically, about 30 grams of resin impregnation Half will go to. You can add a bit of aluminum powder, which is also used as a hardener. This will help identify possible defects on the surface and contributes to better handling. Once the resin hardens, processed drips from her soldering iron and sandpaper. Then cleaned out our product. At the same time try not to get to the tissues. We cut a hole for the speaker, and caused filler. Putty should be applied fairly thinly. Then we clean the sandpaper. Decorative finish is as follows: pre-degreased surface, applied several coats antigraviya. As a result, we obtain a surface that looks like shagreen. Treat the surface composition Kerru KR-970, after which the surface is similar to plastic, which is used to facing. Dyeing, the podium after starting to dry completely antigraviya. For this we use the paint Eska 5104. Paint color is "graphite" and "black". It is designed for painting plastic. The only drawback - the lack of aerosol packaging. If you do not spray, use the Dupli-Color cartridges or VHT. They are painting a dark gray color, suitable for painting vinyl and plastic. After staining the dried product and make the necessary hole for the wires.

Polished glass headlights with their own hands
Over time, glass lamps are becoming less transparent. This is due to the buildup of dirt and sand on the lights while driving. Extremely difficult to clean the glass headlights on a dirty film formed under the influence of engine oil, exhaust fumes of other cars. In such a case will help polish headlights that can be done by hand. But there are some subtleties that can not be used to clean the headlights at random chosen agent, or taking that first caught my hands. In doing so, you are risking to scratch lights or make them more cloudy. In addition, polishing glass lights, you must be very careful. The cost of glass lamps may be very high, the process of grinding a complex and time consuming, treating them carelessly, you risk getting cracks. Polishing consists of several stages: by means of grinding remove chips and scratches polish headlights special polishing paste, remove from the surface chipped and scratched. When polishing is applied Grinder, can be sanded and hand. When choosing sandpaper or grinding wheel, pay attention to their grain, as well as the extent of damage to the headlights. Desirable to use a waterproof range, or sandpaper. Lights must be polished extremely abrasive paste, the abrasive powder, which has properties similar to soft finishing cloth. It should be noted that the hand polishing machine is somewhat more complicated, but its results are not worse, although the polishing machine, of course, greatly facilitates the task. Please note that the polishing process involves the installation of a small speed on the polishing machine. It is important that lamp does not overheat! During polishing headlights for the first time, the main thing is not to hurry. There's nothing complicated, most importantly patience. So, for polishing headlights must be purchased abrasive Abralon. The basis of this material is fabric on the foam substrate. Will be needed and finishing polish PlactX. Buy and tape to protect adjacent surfaces. Wash lights, cover with tape-to-bumper all the surrounding areas. Disassemble easily removable parts: turn signals, grille. For the primary polishing headlights recommended Abralon-600. Before you begin, necessarily dampen circles - they earn more effectively, and dirt at the same time stay inside. On the grind grinder it will take about two to three minutes. Then rinse with water and spotlight grind it around with grit 1000 units. Next, use Abralon-2000 and 4000. To carry out grinding at each stage takes no more than three minutes. When you have finished grinding and polishing, you'll see that your headlights will be almost transparent. Wash and wipe lamp, leaving a little moisture on the surface, apply the composition PlactX and finally polish the surface with a soft foam rubber disk. On the whole polishing you spent about 20 minutes. If you're working by hand, time to grind will take a few more. The result is usually visible to the naked eye. In carrying out precise measurements revealed that the correct polishing glass lamps increases their light transmission up to 70-80%!

Forward flow with his own hands
If you want to add a little power and give the engine of your car a low bass sound, try the forward flow. Direct-flow mufflers are quite simple in design, so if you prefer, you can make a forward flow with his own hands. For the production of forward flow, you can use regular old muffler, two pipes of different diameters and filler or absorbent noise. Forward flow first takes hot gases from the engine and promotes the flow of air. A variety of gases (sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide, etc.) have a high temperature and high speed, therefore building forward flow and the pipe must be heat-resistant. From the old muffler to cut the wall and remove all the "insides". Then take a pipe of smaller diameter (it should match the old pipe muffler) and make holes in the place where the pipe will be included in the muffler. A pipe with holes weld a second tube (1 m long. And with diameters of 20 cm), inserted into the old building and make them on both sides. Top of the muffler must turn in a fire-retardant insulation, pipe wrap on top of which a sheet of stainless steel. At each end and along the length should be an overlap of 5 cm followed by a wrap and zavaltsevat sidewall. The final touch: the ears welded to the holder and install a silencer on the seat. When the car owner decided to change the exhaust system on his several reasons: - the desire to increase the horsepower for a few horsepower. Experienced professionals with forward flow can not add more than 15 engine horsepower - to give the motor a noble "Bass", with the contents of the muffler can select the desired timbre - brag to their friends the new upgraded muffler. The main thing is that the new exhaust system has been implemented correctly, because all the car exhaust system tuned to work with the factory muffler. Replacing the standard muffler ram especially popular among fans of speed. The car is not only fast, but also unique. There are so-called sport exhaust system. Low bass sounds can be obtained not only through the straight tube, but also increases the diameter of the pipe near the exit of the muffler. A sound-absorbing synthetic fiber with "banks" will be able to suppress the high frequencies. In sports exhaust systems, mufflers are often established to replace the so-called "spider". In form and order intake pipe connections, they differ significantly from the standard exhaust systems. More sophisticated model of resonance in the form of two cones reduces the gas pressure. On the power of the engine affects the resonance. Due to a resonance decreases the pressure in the chamber, he draws gases from the combustion chamber and allows the camera to fill the other gases, while the standard forward flow has resisted the exhaust gases, reducing engine power. For fans of this car is hardly suitable, since it is impossible to go through the city because of the high sound pressure (over 120 decibels), while officially permissible limit 100 dB. Not for all standard - it is louder than the sound, the better. The larger engine displacement, more efficient use of forward flow. For an ordinary car, it is better to set the "bank" for the sport - more streamlined design.
Drag car showroom with his own hands
Shifting his saloon car rukamiOchen often motorists are facing the same problem as pollution saloon car, in which case it is not accurate is not hygienic. If cleaning does not help you in this case, the experts on this part are advised to change the upholstery. This article will help you make the constriction with their hands. Always begins with a waist ceiling. The first step is to detach all the visors, caps and pens (do it very carefully, because the plastic eventually might just burst). Under all these parts are bolts that hold the trim and attached to the ceiling. As it is necessary to unfasten the lamp and clip in the passenger compartment. After removing the lamps, you'll see the connector mom-dad, otstegnite it. Under the decorative overlays, plastic sheathing is, they just need to detach. After completion of the work, described earlier, you should pull the trim through the open trunk lid. You should wrap the edges of lining, and to secure the necessary glue masking tape. Special knife for cutting linoleum, make a hole for a lamp fixing tape. Then you need to fix cladding to the right place, then all the plugs and handles set into place. In the same way can update skin seats and carpets, luggage. Of course, more expensive to buy new chairs, you can buy them blankets, which would have approached them. A door trim and armrests can be done independently, it will be easier and cheaper. Job better start with the doors. Well, take a glue, a screwdriver and a variety of cloth, which you want to trim, (screwdriver worth taking a folded 90 degrees at the end). In the beginning you need to remove the old trim and clean the door. After which route the fabric to the door, and cut it on a path, do not forget to cut out the contours of the door handle. Use a screwdriver to tuck the fabric. Draw the junction of the exact contour of the door casing, and straighten the fabric, leaving allowances. Along the contour of the door, apply some glue and a screwdriver to tuck the fabric. That there were no wrinkles, flatten and pull the fabric. Hole for the window lifter, do this: By selling cloth and carefully cut it, what would fold the edges and glue a face on the other side. With lining the front doors do the same. Then you can start making constriction armrest. First, remove the armrest from the seat, disassemble and make patterns. Patterns can be created by applying an armrest for tracing, looking around the path. After which the tissue using patterns draw the parts with allowances. With scissors, cut out parts, do the fitting. Originally Sew seams bottom of the armrest and pull the fabric gently at him, smoothing the folds. Glue the fabric around the contour. Just steps from the upper part of the armrest. Assemble and install the armrest in place.

Shelf VAZ 2110 with his own hands
All those who own a car VAZ 2110, well aware of how unpleasant to be in it when you back some tarahtyaschee misunderstanding in the full sense of the word. It is called the back shelf. You can hear a wide range of sounds, which publishes this masterpiece. This sound is not only confuses the perception of music, but also discourages listening to it. This problem is not going to help cope no gluing, no podkladyvanie. The impression is that it can be heard even outside the car. If a hunt to replace a shelf, it appears that the market does not. If desired, it is replaced regiments from other models of the WHA. But there is another way to cope with this problem - make it your own hands, taking into account all wishes. In order to perform quality work, every effort should be. After all, the accuracy depends how much will be spent forces on its deployments in the car. Quality and the options depend on the shelves of many parameters: thickness and material quality, as well as swelling in the zone of the speakers. Immediately it should be noted that the installation of a very thick shelves of solid material in the hatchback, possibly a very severe injury of the rear passengers, if there will be a powerful blow. If all this does not stop, then you can start making shelves. To resolve this issue will have to exert some effort. First, you need to get here, these tools and materials: desyatimilimitrovuyu plywood, carpet, which is used for upholstery and decoration; PVA glue; radiotkan; versatile polymer adhesive that would glue the fabric, screws, electric drill, electric jigsaw, sander. Then on a sheet of plywood to draw the upper part of the plant shelves, further cut-cut plot. In part that is adjacent to the seat and cut, measures the height. The same part of which is attached to the glass, must be taken from the plant shelves, and then attach it to a new one. But if you want, you can cut from a sheet of plywood pyatimillimetrovoy. Start manufacturing the sidewall. To do so, preferably make a template. It's much better and faster than the outline details of the factory. Cut in advance to all parties details. Then grind down where they touch the glass. After using screws, to assemble those parts that are manufactured, and then try on their future position. If you find any inconsistencies, remove them. Also need to cut another set of side walls, but note that they should be lower and shorter than previous ones. This is due to the need to put a shelf, to a specialized place for it. On the resulting shelf to identify where in array loudspeakers. Then these sections cover radiotkanyu. All available parts glued and dried. After drying, the final try on the shelf. Making sure that everything is fine, glued carpet. In the carpet, especially for loudspeakers, cut the holes, which are covered radiotkanyu. Carpet is glued with PVA glue. Then bend allowances and using stiplera fixed. Finished. It remains only to put a shelf on the intended place for it.
