92_rugby_subie replied to idosubaru's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXMine either. I had over spray on my rear glass, used vinegar/water mix and scrubbed the paint off, then used a dish cloth with dish soap to "re-clean" it and then gave it a good rinse with a power washer... Glass was so clean... til I realized the inside was filthy, now its super clean, no scratches or anything. Make sure to give it a good rinse as the pieces of steel wool can get left in cracks and rust, which Ive heard wont hurt the glass, itll just look s**tty

The chrome is getting spray painted. She doesnt like the look of the black with chrome, its just what came with the car when she bought it.

I have a few "?"s about SPFI vs Carb blocks
I know a SPFI motor can be put under a carburetor manifold with higher compression/more power (how much does this change the reliability?) Can this go the other way? If it was being rebuilt, could it be "altered" in such a way that it would be the same as an SPFI motor?

You need intake gaskets... Ive heard you can use "other" forms of them, but they are necessary...

Help on a few things
Is that like lacquer thinner? Ive used that before to remove grease and stuff... Used it on motors that were out of the car to clean them up.

Steel wool worked great on the paint over spray, the back window is incredibly clear. I used a dish soap afterwards to clean it all up, then powerwashed for a rinse... dumb idea... with open tail-light holes (doh) But I began cleaning up the silicone and will hopefully have the new lights in this weekend!

Ohh, yea I totally thought it was for the silicone lol. Do you think that stuff will take the rusty looking stuff off chrome wheels? I have a set Im trying to sell, and it would be amazing if they were in perfect condition for whoever bought them?

Thanks! I knew I could find the right answers! I will try the steel wool first as I dont have razor blades handy and hopefully that does the trick. I will use the goof off method first so theres no risk of losing paint with droplets or anything. If that doesnt get it off, then I will use the chemical.

Help on a few things
Okay, I was going to do these all separate, but decided to try to put it all together as one thread. First - What is everyones luck with getting this black silicone off the paint, without damaging it? I am getting new tail-lights this week and want to put them in with a fresh seal. I would like the body side of the lights to be down to paint as the new lights will get a scrubbing as well. Been told to use Butyl Rubber to seal the lights, any other suggestions or is this the best idea? (got it from GD, its gotta be a good one, but am I missing anything) Second - How can you get paint off glass without damaging the class/scratching the glass? I have some black overspray on my rear window (how it got there, Im clueless to) I have a friend who said to use steel wool and dish soap, but having used steel wool to clean the chrome wheels, Im a little nervous to use that on glass.
