Twice. 3. I don't think it matters unless you are using PF9x pads or equivalent. Just change whatever needs changing at the moment. Rotors this week, pads the next or whatever. 4.

#9. [E36M3] Mirror backing finish - from GSM M3
Top
Date: Wed, 13 Sep 2000 11:15:02 GMT From: "GSM M3" <carpediemm3@hotmail.com> Subject: [E36M3] Mirror backing finish Folks, Does anyone know what type of solution/chemical, will remove the silver backing to a mirror (can't imagine there being a difference between an interior and exterior backing?). Isn't there some sort of craft kit that allows you to mask off a portion of glass/mirror, then apply some type of acid perhaps, and be able to remove and etch the glass at the same time? I'd like to only remove the silver only, and not etch the glass if possible. I'll tell you what I'm doing after I do it successfully (fingers crossed). Off-line follow up would be great. Thanks for the help. Cheers, Greg '99M _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
