    Talking about long hours. When I was at Uniroyal I usually did all 7 days splits on Sunday (6am-12pm/10pm-7am). Happy to work straight 40 now:D

    Good luck!:fingerscrossed:

    My cardio rehab Nurse started pushing pretty hard yesterday, sore today, and now she wants me to work out at home on my off days:eek: She was also asking when I planned on returning to work, 8 weeks or take the full 12:rolleyes:, not sure what she met. I’m feeling really good now. (Week 5)

    Glad to hear you're doing good. If you've got the time allotted, take it and heal up fully. Even if it's just extra relax time :thumbsup:

    I planned on it, but the Dr. has sign off on it after Nov. 25
    Just realized Nov. 30 is 12 weeks.:rolleyes:

    Messed the paint up a little on the tundra where I removed the TRD decals :annoyed: used adhesive remover and a paper towel and dulled the paint down in the few spots I had to remove the residue :anonymous:

    You have to look at it from an angle and know it’s there to notice it. And I know it’s there so I have to try and fix it :D what’s a good polishing compound?

    I use mothers brand. not sure of exact one. doubt you'd need to go as far as using a cutting compound, but could be an option. if you have an orbital buffer it helps a lot.

    should say an aggressive cutting compound. the mothers polish should be enough to bring it back

    ...and on THAT note, this reminds me.

    I have some scratches that SHOULD buff out OK, but I was told it should be wet-sanded. Any recommended places to look or techniques I should be looking for?

    id try the buffer first, wet sanding is a one way trip to a new paint job

    Wet sanding looks easy but can go south fast. Wouldn't necessarily shy away from it but practice on a spare part first. YouTube would be a good place to look, I know that's a broad answer but it always where I start :D

    That's what a buddy here at work recommended.

    He's done it successfully, I was just curious if anyone here had tried it before. Some YouTube resources are better than others!
