When working with any kind of fiber (exhaust wrap, fiberglass, carbon, fine dust from sanding metal/paint) rub some baby powder on your hands and arms or any exposed skin really. It clogs your pores so the fibers never get in to give you that itch. Washes off easy with a hose and shop rag when you're done

@jimkillen1065 Жыл бұрын

I really enjoy your videos ..I use to work at a power plant and there was all kinds of insulation there . The wrap reminded me of fire blankets we used to protect cable trays when welding . There was crews that built blankets to go around valves piping simular to the blanket used on the turbos . I worked on a d11 cat while back and it to had insulation blankets and covers to help control heat . You have a nice shop and well equipped. Thanks for the information you provide

Now that it's gotten the Skid Factory treatment, it'll definitely bring him even more fun. The double turbski's look awesome especially since you experimented with the Reverse Rotation one. The symmetry makes the whole kit look great. It sounds great and I'm sure this thing is gonna rip out on the track. Thanks for putting in the hard work to make a great project.
