    Just want to post a before and after of my truck after spraying the wheel wells. And thanks to @Hardscrabble for the recommendation!
    IMO truck looks 10x better.

    It's probably some special Canadian chemical you can only get at Tim Hortons.

    Doesn't even have a license plate yet!
    Do you get any flex in your steps? I'm beginning to think I didn't torque them down enough because I got a lot of resistance from the threaded holes when I was tightening the bolts...

    I had just washed it so it was clean. I didn't cover anything. It has a good nozzle so you can hit where your aiming. Did 2 coats

    I tore her apart to access the two switches next to the fog light switch and rigged up the harnesses for my light bar and my ditch lights. Got the bar mounted, but received the wrong ditch lights bracket (gave me a third gen bracket by mistake), will have the new brackets today for mounting. Me and my coworker jammed this out in our parking garage at work after we got off at 11. Finished around 12:30.
