Windsheild Repair
Which car is better overall? 1996 eclipse gs or a 1997 honda civic lx?
I own a 1996 eclipse gs. I love the car but things keep on going wrong with it and I have put nearly $800 in unexpected repairs in to it since I got in October. It only has 94k on it. I am going to college in the fall and I need a car that will be reiable and one tahtI don't have to worry about breaking down all of the time. I found a 1997 honda civic lx. with nothing wrong with it for $2300. The only thing it needs is a windsheild. The body has 200k but the motor andmany other parts were changed around 10k ago. I really don't know what to do. What would you do? Should I sell the eclispe and get the civic or should I keep the eclispe and see wat happens?
If you are having continuing problems with your Eclipse I would switch to the civic. Since the engine was replaced 10,000 miles ago, the car should be in good shape to continue for many more miles. Honda engines are known for having a long life. I would still check on the age of the other parts in the civic before committing to it.

Tips for Window Film Removal
Window film is a layer of film that is placed over a glass window to help keep rooms cooler and protect furniture against sun damage. Window film is most popular amongst home conservatory owners as it is an ideal method of controlling the climate within these heavily glassed rooms. There are several types of window film available which have a wide variety of uses from solar window film to help heat reduction, ultraviolet filters, privacy film and safety film to name a few.
However unless your window film was fitted by professional window film supplies then they can start to bubble and can over time deteriorate and creak. Once the film does start to do this then it can start to look very unattractive. There are many reasons that window film sometimes needs to be removed, in some cases people simply might just want more light in a room or don't like the look of the film. But whatever the reason, sometimes window film has to be removed.
Window film removal is a very slow and tedious process but it can be carried out by anyone. It is advisable that before you undertake any removal of window film that you can refer to the manufacturer's guidelines to prevent damaging the glass.
Removing window film can depend upon the type of window glass and the type of the film that has been installed, however below are a set of basic tips for removing window film.
1) Peel any loss edges or creaked areas of the film window
2) Spray the remaining pieces of window film thoroughly with Ammonia
3) Cover sprayed areas with a dry sheet of plastic
4) Uncover and re-spray the area every 30 minutes
5) After 2 hours the ammonia should have absorbed through the window film and broken down the adhesive so now remove the plastic sheet
6) Take a razor blade, and softly scrape away the exiting window film
7) Wash the windows with soapy water and a nylon cloth to help remove any excess traces of adhesive
Here I would just like to make a special note that Ammonia is extremely poisonous so please make sure the room is well-ventilated and you wear a mask to avoid breathing in fumes before you start the process of removing the solar window film.
So there you have it, you should now have film free windows.

I have a beautiful front door with ugly blue faux stained glass. Is there a product that will remove the color
I have tried scraping it off, as well as applying paint remover, but have had no luck.
Have you thought about replacing the whole glass panel? Unless I am grossly mistaken, you should be able to remove the molding around the glass and change the insert for one you like.

Baby Boomers, Medical Marijuana, and Headshops
Baby Boomers, Medical Marijuana, and Headshops
The graying of America has led a group of baby boomers into uncomfortable territory. Medical Marijuana may be prescribed for some “boomers” who have been alien to pot, or at least away from it for a while. In addition, many headshops which peppered the streets of many cities in the seventies, are now online entities. Medical Marijuana has resurrected the ghosts of 70’s past, and now baby boomers must re-view some of the paraphernalia needed to deliver their medicine in the most efficient and economical way.
One of the hottest holiday gifts and most important device for the delivery of Medical Marijuana is a vaporizer. In fact, MedLine reports studies that support the use of vaporization (The Volcano) as a viable means of efficient smokeless delivery. The fact that a governmental level study has been conducted is important, since the FDA frowns upon smoked medicine. The main benefit is that your throat is spared irritation from a cigarette like experience.
The Volcano vaporizer, which was used in the study, and the “V” Tower Extreme, are front runners for VAPES of the year. Many old school boomers will fall back on regular rolling papers, blunt wraps, cones (splif papers), pipes, bongs, hookahs, or chillums. All of these are efficient (and necessary) for Medical Marijuana delivery.
A new comer to the headshop scene is the herb Grinder. An arthritic patient or vaporizer user would greatly appreciate an object designed to mash, grind, and crush the Medical Marijuana into an easy to heat source. The classic wooden Grinder would be an excellent gift item.
Speaking of gifts, when you visit an online headshop, remember there are plenty of possibilities. The list also includes Drug Test Kits, Mood Enhancers, Novelty Ash-Trays, Souvenir Lighters, Smokeshop supplies & legal herb, black light posters, beads, jewelry, incense, hemp clothing, and an endless array of memorabilia.

will the oster (sp?) nail grinder kit work on my GSD?
I have been looking at a few of these kits on ebay and I cant tell if they will work for his huge nails the brand I mentioned is available close to me. I looked at a few others one store clamied they are a grooming shop and thier product would work but you just never know. Anyway anyone had any success with a particular grinder on a large breed
I don't know about that oster grinder, but as a professional groomer I know that the dremel is amazing...You can get a dremel from your local lowes or home depot. Even though the dremel is small power tool it is no different than the oster grinders except the cost to replace the heads on the dremel is much less expensive.
I bought one with many different speed settings and use it on dogs ranging from teeny tine yorkies to big newfoundlands. I have noticed that most dogs prefer the dremel over clipping because it doesn't create uncomfortable pressure.
You need to make sure you know how to properly grind a nail before using one, you can damage the nail and hurt the dog if you use too high of a speed.

How are the windshield and other glass problems handled when making a chop top hot rod?
I am very curious about hot rods, chop tops in particular. Does all the glass have to be custom made and how expensive and exhausting a process is that?
Yes, they are custom made unless you buy the kits that have the flat windshields. The chrome ones that have the small glass in them, But those are for open tops or soft top convertible. The side windows if they roll down can just be rolled down a bit. The back glass try to make it flat to reduce cost. Side windows that do not open are usually flat glass anyhow and does not cost a lot. Those curved custom windows I would look on the internet for some good glass cutter shops so that you can make sure they have a tight fit. You dont want them to leak. Unless of course you are making an open top. Then you would only need the windshield.
