cleaning and Quietcoat sound deadener....
Sorry pictures suck, i left my memory card at my other place so had to take pics from my phone/friends camera hense the delayed updates...
Inside the scumbag door
Cleaned...
doors stripped (took off plastic that covered the opening to window) noticed the black ring of goo on the doors...
Goo cleaned off... WHAT A PITA.
doors painted...
Inside of doors
Rest of the car... first coat...
Garage is kinda cold and the paint wasnt drying well so i tossed a heater in the car
outside views
Today i totals...
2 coats inside the door, 1 on the door.
1 coat floorboard and rear under bins
2 coats over trans tunnel
The main reason i bought sound deadener was in hope to muffle the "clank" noise when slamming the doors. the doors are damn heavy and the hollowness makes them sound cheap and old as hell. i opted for quietcoat vs dynomat because i think its easier to paint inside the door then try laying out dynomat (which is thick and the adheasive is a BITCH if you ever need to take it off) Also after researching on the rx7club, one guy swears by quietcoat... and from what i acheived tonight, the doors sound like theres an improvement. they still sound loud and heavy but when you slam it shut its a solid "glunk" like a heavy door rather then "cheap"
I had intentions of putting the dash back but decided to hold off till the engine bay was painted... thus it would save me the trouble of taping off parts that came through the firewall... in preparation i decided to sort out bolts, nuts, and misc... along with cleaning some parts..
remember this?
now = this...
sorted out... categories such as fuel, suspension, engine bay, interior, etc...
Hahahahahha and the best part... some close ups on my labeling... for stuff i didnt know what they were i wrote paragraph descriptions and diagrams ahahaha
some parts all cleaned up.. i dont know the exact name but they go behind the dash on the passenger side...
threw the carpet in for shits and giggles...
