shacks510 Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 O'Reilly has brake hardline that has a neat polymer something coating. It's a very dark green; almost black color. It won't crack or chip when you bend it. I like it. 2 Quote Link to comment

Shit. I wish you said something first. That high temp clear turns yellowy doodoo brown. Only should be used over dark colors. I suppose it's fine if you plan on swapping it anyway. It'll give you some time. Getting close! Looking more than good. 1 Quote Link to comment

Laecaon Posted November 15, 2015 Report Share Posted November 15, 2015 That tool is rated very well. I find soo many people referring to it on other forums. But this is what my flare tool looks like: 2 Quote Link to comment
Busta Nut Posted November 15, 2015 Report Share Posted November 15, 2015 Is Eastwood tools good. Skyblue bought the eastwood fender roller.....I was surprised at the quality..... It's no Snap-On......but not a bad tool company That tool is rated very well. I find soo many people referring to it on other forums. But this is what my flare tool looks like: I have one very similar to this.........made by MAC tools that I bought when I was working at a place with no Snap-On truck.... I fuckin' hate it........the Snap-On one isn't any better..... So my search continued until I saw that one.... http://www.eastwood....aring-tool.html Looks like a good design......I want to borrow one before buying it though cuz now I'm just sceptical of flaring tools... 1 Quote Link to comment
edekalil Posted November 15, 2015 Report Share Posted November 15, 2015 But when you can afford to watch other people slave on your shit, its nice to watch also. You gotta learn somehow, That's how I learned by watching people do work on there cars back when I was a kid. Quote Link to comment
