Review on πŸ› οΈ TAPCO 11676 Brake Buddy Set with Protective Case by Dan Cramer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nice custom details

Wasn't sure about the purchase at first but fell in love with it quickly. One of the contractors I work for didn't like some of the oil cans we had on the fascia so I ordered this to prevent that from happening. Not only has it done away with canned oil, but overall the faceplate seems to have a lot more integrity and a very clean custom look. I use it on panels including nest boxes. Just a few extra touches to help us stand out in the area. Each piece of fascia takes about 30 extra seconds to rotate. One thing we keep repeating is this. I hope whoever comes later to fix things has Brake Buddy. You will have a very interesting time trying to reproduce the smooth curve of the fascia. without one. Or they can call me and I can reproduce it very easily for a fee! The kit also includes a brick forming roller, we have used this many times over, it works very well and makes bending custom door panels incredibly easy. I can easily find white lids for brick molds but no color. High quality aluminum makes a spool for finishing and I have fairly easy access to make lids for a brick mold.

Pros
  • Reinforces the faceplate against oil cans
Cons
  • Only available in black
