UNDERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the front of the car. OVERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the rear. HORSEPOWER is how fast you hit the wall. TORQUE is how far you take the wall with you.

I gave this a go today on a set of rims that have been painted gold. I want to repaint them but have the natural alloy finish on the rim lip section.

Using this hi-tech setup:
Quite happy with the result even though its quite messy. Cost me about 15-20mins a wheels and 1kg of Bi-Carb ($3.80ish) per wheel. Still working on best method of delivery, tried straight out of box first, then out of a bottle. It needs constant jiggling to stop it blocking at suction end and to keep it sucking the soda but will try without brass fitting in the hose next time.
