IS THIS OXIDIZATION??

Just washed the rig and noticed that my taco devil horns emblem is corroded to shit! Anyone else have the same prbm? If so did you just wire wheel the shit off and get a new layer of clear coat?

 

Looks like a chemical reaction of some kind

 

trippy

 

Bat Saliva

 

your devil horns are made out of metal? or plastic?

 

Looks like pitted aluminum

 

They're from Andres here on TW. Its made from alu, with a clear powder coat. Im thinking that there was proly a small pin hole in the clear coat and some water got in there. Shouldnt be too hard to fix anyhow, just looks shitty...

 

Have you contacted Andres ?

 

What do they put down for icy road conditions up there? Is it sand or something caustic?

 

still thinks its bat...

 

Nah, I wont bother him with it, its been on my rig for almost a year anyhow. It was proly a rock that chipped the clear coat im thinking. I wash my truck usually once every couple weeks and the last time I washed it, there was no sign of corrosion at all.

 

Road salt / water under the clear coat maybe

Contacting Andres is probably your best bet for accurate repair info and products that were used in manu

 

You can have mine if you pay shipping. I detest badges.

 

You detest badges but shelled out for Devil Horns ?

 

"It was a phase..."

 

Didn't realize it was devil horns. So yeah, my bad. I have a stock Toyota one OP can have if he pays shipping

 

It's probably due to your poor language skills. It's a well known fact that those who use vulgar language online to describe and complain of minor, insignificant or otherwise HGAS issues are much more susceptible to experiencing minor, insignificant or otherwise HGAS issues.

It is also medically proven that people who do this are much more likely to either:

1. Have their head explode causing massive bio-pollution in their immediate vicinity, or;
2. Wet their bed while sleeping.

It's a nasty world out there OP.

I wish you the best.

 

dafuq?

 

Whoa

 

Sorry, did that guy just use the acronym for "who gives a shit" to admonish someone for using the word shit? Cuz that would be ridiculous.
