A regular on TV's "My Classic Car," Richardson covers a wide range of commercial products, tasks, and techniques necessary to produce award winning and show-car-quality chassis and engine restorations. This comprehensive guide includes new powder coating techniques and materials, painting and CAD plating techniques, intake and exhaust system detailing, rewiring, disassembly and media blasting, MIG welding, and hundreds of other topics. Published 2000.
This book contains sections on general detailing techniques, including sand blasting, painting, powder coating, polishing, welding, and stuck bolt removal. Specific sections apply these techniques to engines, brakes, suspension, and exhaust. The powder coating section includes details of a do-it-yourself kit on the cheap. This kit allows you to apply most powder coatings, and cure them using an ordinary household oven (don't use the one in the kitchen, you'll never get the smell out). The polishing section has also proved to be immediately useful.
