  • rear defrost repair

    what kinda of paint do they put in those kits? because i need a whole lot of it. i got like 3 lines still working. and should i use masking tape to tape it off?
    it'll do the 1/8 in 13.7, spin tires, and make all my drunk buddies giggle.

    They sell a repair kit at the parts store comes with all you need including a template.I have had some success with these kits on used cars.

        This one has more info ..


        My actual fix ..


        As you read , you will see that I tried using masking tape , the little piece that they give you is too wide in the kit .

        I tried everything that people said would work , copper paint from a hobby store , silver model paint .

        The one that actually did work was the Permatex brand , I know there are others , but none in my town , the Permatex was not cheap ,for such a small bottle , $10.00 a bottle and is barely enough for 3 lines .

        The bad thing about mine was every line was bad .

        If you do not have any luck , the next answer in in my last link

        Hope that helps.
