I'm sure he used a special heater used for heating up sticks of PVC pipe. They are very pricey, but you can use a torch and be careful with it. It just takes like 5x as long with a torch and it's not very consistant.

I made 2.One with a torch and one with a "hot box" and they both came out the same.

). But its still cleaner than mine.[img][/img]http://newbieforces.com/files/crx_eng.jpg

Re:outta the blue!!!!

Dude you have all these nice things in your engine bay but you engine bay itself looks like crap. Take a day and clean it up. Repaint some of the things that use to be black again. A little bit of time and elbow grease goes a long way.
