How to Restore Broken Akrapovic Carbon Fiber Exhaust Tips [DIY]

[@andrey.p]

When I saw the viny sheet, I though - "No, he cannot spray it, it is so not worth it". You have Buddha-like patience and diligence. You have my total respect.

[@JavaMike71]

Your videos are pretty awesome! I also enjoy the bit of comedy you throw into them. It's even better that you show the things that go wrong.... great videos, keep them coming.

[@teoyota]

Eco, use "2k spray can" or car clear coat with hardener inside. Those generic spray cans wont last long and you will be redoing the tips again.

[@chrisbradley3224]

2k is dangerous to spray without full air supply. Aerosol isocyanates are extremely hazardous.

[@Callabrator]

You’ve got one of my favorite channels! Thanks for another great video!

[@JunoW712]

Finally ! Love your content bro :)

[@emfarfan]

You are a master! How can I remove a titanium exhaust pipe carbon fiber end cap that is stuck? I have removed the retaining screws and I know it can come off, any tips for loosening or tapping free?

[@teoyota]

Also look into "electrolysis rust removal" for the metal parts.

[@852foodie]

Great job!! I can’t believe you had to cut out those alphabets on the vinyl sheet before spraying. The finished product looks great!

[@jravelo2]

Better than new! Nice work :)

[@민조-y3u]

정말 손이 많이 가는 작업이네요...여러 가지로 많이 보여달라고 말씀드리기가 힘듭니다...금손 중의 금손...인정합니다

[@rawrtravisrawr]

always thought these were fake carbon, great video!

[@jonathantomlin8206]

Why not leave the resin/hardner after curing and then clear coat afterwards? It seems it looks a lot better Before sanding.

[@storage5955]

넋놓고 보게되네요

[@kylebell2365]

Crazy attention to detail…amazing!

[@lungtamik]

So you first put a layer of gloss clear and then on top matte clearcoat ?

[@ECOLAPStudio]

Hello friend. That's right. I applied a matte spray over a glossy surface. I tried to make a semi-matte topcoat surface. That attempt was able to produce good results.

[@lungtamik]

@@ECOLAPStudio Hello so you basically wanted to have a satin finish ;-)

[@danboyes7477]

Looks amazing, well done. You must have the patience of a Saint 👍

[@Nikki_fz]

Do u know how to readjust carbon part with inner steel part?

[@kleincalvin5743]

[@dibranxhymshiti7631]

Awesome job, where did you get the vinyl stickers?

[@RichardLorddeCameron]

Niiiiiiiice. Great trick with the labeling 👍

[@Supply-z7v]

안녕하세요 동영상 잘봤습니다 감사합니다! 혹시 마지막에 사용하신 스프레이 제품 정보 알 수 있을까요? 감사합니다!

[@benyam9240]

next time you can try using water-slide-decal For mini logo and word. It always work perfect

[@ECOLAPStudio]

Hello friend. Water slide decals are sensitive to heat. And My printer cannot print white.

[@sb8536]

Hello, would it be possible to just sand, apply the stickers and then paint with 2k clear ? Or do i need to use the resin first ?

[@donghunlee8620]

왠지 내꺼니깐 하는거지 남의것이였음 이리 공들여하긴 힘들어보이는 다이라 느껴집니다 고생하셨습니다

[@KG-lj9yj]

Would this work on Remus Axleback CF Tips as well?

[@rybafly8493]

Next time use lemon/citrone juice to remove rust. No scrubbing etc. BTW. I love watching your films. Hope to do few projects with my BMW. Great job.

[@sundippatel1796]

Nice work !

[@ODGColornChrome]

Awesome work!

[@tacticalcenter8658]

The tips get very hot, did you use a high temp epoxy? How are they holding up today since you did this?

[@ECOLAPStudio]

Hello friend. I used High TG Epoxy Resin, as described in the video. My tips are no problem.

[@wtfftw24]

Very good job! Is there a sandable epoxy resin or all the epoxy are easy to sand?

[@ECOLAPStudio]

Hello friend. All epoxy resins can be sanded easily.

[@wtfftw24]

@@ECOLAPStudio thank you!

[@smarrazziell]

I don't understand how to use the epoxy resin and harderner. What is the corret mix of them? Thank you in advance for the answer.

[@ECOLAPStudio]

Hello friend. If you buy an epoxy resin & hardener, the mix ratio will be marked.

[@p.k.7111]

Perfect restoration!

[@jonathanwhitaker3713]

This is a super human craftsman effort. Not for normal DIY person.

[@heckjoo37]

스티커 알리산인가요ㅋㅋㅋ

[@andrewCorrigan]

Do you let them cool in-between temperatures in the oven?

[@ECOLAPStudio]

Hello friend. I didn't cool down between 50, 100 and 150 degrees Celsius. I post-cured at 50, 100 and 150 degrees for 9 hours in a row. Post-curing temperature is different for each epoxy resin. You should refer to the manufacturer's datasheet.

[@rawrtravisrawr]

@@ECOLAPStudio what is purpose of curing? have noticed you don't normally do in other videos

What vinyl cutter have you used?

[@ECOLAPStudio]

Hello friend. I don't have a vinyl cutter. I asked my friend to cut the vinyl and got it. My friend runs a sticker shop.

[@MMDayz]

Excelent resault my friend!

[@AcarDcar]

지..지렸다.. 일반 머플러 브라켓부분빼고 절단하고 카본으로 만들어도 될까유..?

[@ECOLAPStudio]

안녕하세요. 브라켓 부분을 뺀다는 것이 어떤 의미인지는 모르겠으나.. 아크라포빅 카본팁의 경우 카본으로 전해지는 열을 최소화하기 위해서 카본 안쪽에 브라켓들이 있습니다. 그렇기 때문에 리벳부분만 카본과 맞닿아 직접적으로 열이 전달되고 다른 부분은 금속 부분과 닿고 있지 않습니다. 아무래도 HIGH TG 에폭시 수지를 사용한다고 하더라도 에폭시 수지가 열에는 취약하기 때문에 그 부분은 신경써서 만들어야할 것입니다.

[@adityadika1436]

[@ihjo5652]

항상 영상 잘보고있습니다 저도 같은 고민중이였는데 영상이 올라왔네요 신기합니당ㅎㅎㅎㅎ 제꺼는 아크라가 아닌 레무스인데 카본팁이 신경 안 쓴사이에 스톤칩이 난거마냥 클리어? 로 유추되는 부분이 부분 부분 까져있더라구요 컴파운드나 페인트 클렌저로는 어림도 없는거보니 맞는거같은데 샌딩작업 후 에폭시를 다시 올리는게 좋을까요?? 아니면 내열클리어를 올리는게 좋을까요??

[@ECOLAPStudio]

안녕하세요. 스톤칩은 폴리싱으로는 없어질 수가 없습니다. 일단 샌딩 전체를 하시고, 샌딩 후에 면이 잘 잡혀 있다면 내열클리어를 올리시고 면이 제대로 잡혀있지 않다면 내열 에폭시 레진 도포 후 샌딩으로 표면을 잡고 내열 클리어를 올리시면 좋을 거 같습니다.
