[Shotimes] Replacing Brake Hose / Touch Up Paint?

[Jim & Debbie Leyden]

Touch-up paint can be purchased from your Stealership.  Buy both the color
and clearcoat touchup bottles.  Try to just put on enough paint to restore
the color but not fill the scratch.  Then use the clearcoat to fill the
scratch.  When you are finished you can (if you want) used 1500 grit paper
to lightly sand down any excess clearcoat and finally rubbing compound, then
polishing compound to remove any haziness.

	Thanks to Jim's suggestion, I got the endlink properly installed,  
however the real problem is the rear brake hose that I went to  
replace.  I understand how everything is supposed to work, except for  
where it attaches to the brake line.  The junction is incredibly  
rusty, so I soaked it a few times in PB Blaster.  What is the easiest  
way to get this apart, and should I have gotten a second clip for the  
line side?  I know that the line must be bad, since it isn't fully  
releasing the caliper, and when I wiggle it around a bit, the caliper  
releases the rest of the way!


	Also, any leads (dealer? or?) on a small jar/can of touch up paint  
would be nice.  Someone decided to put a scratch in my door that  
should probably be covered over.  I know that I've seen them  
somewhere, and I need an Emerald Green one.

Thanks,
-Chris
