I finally got all the winter road grime cleaned off the truck, it was in desperate need and our weather was unseasonably warm this weekend so. . .







This was about a 5 1/2 hour job yesterday. The sides of the truck felt like sandpaper from all the ***** kicked up over the winter. Washed it first, went over the entire truck (except the very top) with WD-40 to remove all the gunk, washed it 2 more times, with dish soap, to remove the oily residue from the WD-40, hit a few spots with Meguiars swirl remover, then waxed it with Meguiars #26. I am pretty happy with the results and if it stays nice tomorrow I may find the time to NXT it, today I detailed the inside. She's a happy truck!!

 

Nice job Karen.

 

Cool sig!

And your truck looks happy emerging from its 'cave'...

 

Time well spent, you did a great job, looks fantastic.

 

Looks great WMR!

 

Now dress those tires !

 

I sure I wish I could get some nice weather....

 

Thanks guys and gals!

I wondered how long it would be before someone noticed that. It wasn't until I looked at the pictures that I realized I forgot to spray the tires! By then it was dark out, so I did it today!!

 

Thanks the truck is very happy!! And kobiashi made the sig for me. I like it but took me a while to decide to use it, I'm just used to having the truck and info in there.

 

I like the new sig........ One of these days I'm going to have to do that....

Thanks for dressing those tires !!!!

 

Nice Job!

 

nice effect with the starburst lens filter!

Love those points of light!

 

Ahh, I just noticed that...

 

Nice Job Rosey!!! Looks great. And I know it takes a long time to do the job right. Way to go!

B.T. W. it is cool that you have a igloo for your truck!

 

Thanks for the complement, but it's just a camera, no special lenses! Just very bright sun and the right angle I guess.

Thanks!! And I figured since we live in Alaska one of us should live in an igloo!! Seriously, she's a little too long for the garage so we had to do something to protect her from the elements. It's a Cover It portable garage, one of our wiser investments!!
