@Taco-Bell

Don’t know if these would work on yours.

 

Thanks for the tag but nah they won’t

 

Holy fuck lol

Had to post screenshot instagrams embedding won’t work for some reason..

 

So no Ardbeg trips planned yet? Just trips to the mall? lol

 

Nothing yet. Trails open April 15th I believe. Hoping to do some camping trips and not really wheel because it will be too wet. Suggested to wait till May or June to keep from rutting out everything.

 

I'll agree with waiting until May. The snow probably won't be gone until mid April anyways. June sounds like bug season.

 

May.
April they're still closed

 

My bad. I always forget if it’s May or April.

But @Jake4848 we are trying to fill the void while the trails are closed. Have gone full mall crawler

 

Haha, times are changing. I'm stuck here living in the past. Can't wait to get on the trails again.

 

You mean when we get to Johnston - pine trees provincial park? Dunno. We'll see how the roads are

 

Passed the request on. Now all that needs to happen is to get one booked when I don't have the kids lol

 

Think I may go with the Falken Wildpeak AT/3Ws E rating. Price is right and the tire shop just down the road can hook it up. I will see what I am out of pocket for my repairs Wednesday and then order when I get the molah. Would like to have ATs for this summer but want an alignment first.

 

thanks for the new sig

 

Awesome, my first Sig worthy post!

 

He also sells on Amazon.ca

www.eshine.ca

He generally ships same or next business day. His regular post is Expedited parcel which takes 1-2 days.

I ordered a new Rupes RO Polisher Saturday night and it's expected to arrive tomorrow.

I remembered that last year when I polished the truck down, my arms were almost numb from using the Torx RO polisher for over 12 hrs straight each day over a weekend. The Torx and Porter Cable polishers work good but they only have about 8mm of stroke and transmit all the vibrations. Lol figured I'd go to a higher end unit this year. Will be able to hold a beer when I'm done without foam all over the place.

This year won't take that long at all, except for a few light surface bush scratches on the front bumper, you have to hunt in the sunshine to find anything else but I'll polish the whole truck down anyways.
(Or the apprentice will if we have a slow week, hehe).

I just love how easy it is to wash the truck now, rinse, foam cannon, rinse, drive fast to dry, done. Or $3 at the local coin-op car wash. Definitely more scratch resistance too.

 

Lol looks like he drove through a warehouse of barbed wire!

 

Nice.. ive ordered stuff from them before. The guy from oldtown auto spa will actually meet me in hamilton for deliveries sometimes too. I had my truck arctic ceramic coated 2 years ago but this year Im going to polish my new 30 year old car and im looking to do to some sort of coating after. Ill either go cquarts or optimum gloss coat.
Where do you work and whos this apprentice?

 

Decided to take my truck down a trail that was even tight for atvs and i hate washing it now. I miss my silver taco

 

May and June are black fly season

 

I work as an electrician now, lol we always torment the apprentices that if they show up late they will have to polish the work trucks till they look like mine.
Never buying Black for work trucks ever again lol. (Dodge so it really does not matter anyways).
One dumb ass was using a floor broom to clean one of the work trucks.
When I asked him why he was using a floor broom,
He told me he was worried the pressure washer would damage the paint.
Never letting an apprentice touch the paint on my truck Lol, they don't park beside, nor are their nipples allowed within 2 meters.

Yeah I've heard good things about Optimum Gloss Coat too.

I read so many reviews/forums and watched so many youtube backyard comparisons that I realized that there was very little definitive testing done.
I was really focusing on scratch resistance.
So no way was my cheap ass going to pay $1200+ to get a professional to do it.
But it was worth a couple hundred $ to try it out myself.

Lol I was so indecisive about trying a Ceramic coating out, and doing it myself, especially on a new 202 Black truck.
Now I'm glad I did.
202 Black was invented by Satan. Looks so sexy when clean but if a fly farts you can see the stain from 10 paces.

Knowing what I know now, I wish we had done the work trucks when they were new. (would not have paint corrected them though)
The ease of cleaning alone makes it worth it. Apprentices would appreciate that, Lol.

What 30 year old car you making all shiny?
