    Scored a brand new bed mat on Craigslist today. Not something I would have went out and bought new but couldn’t pass up the deal. Will be nice not having my camping gear rearrange itself for me on the trail.

    My SEM matte black paint came in. I lightly sanded the chrome ring for the shifter (still needs some more sanding). I also need to sand/scuff up the gauge trim rings. Would red or green Scotchbrite work? I have both.

    Damn, sorry to hear that. It appears as if it will hold things down pretty well. I keep my work boots in that craftsman box from Lowe’s and that usually slides around and bounces from side to side but on the way home from work and to work it stayed put.

    I have to clean my glass blocks basement windows from sealing the concrete with Thompson Water Sealer. The water sealer left glass hazy.

    I picked up a 2009 Taco with a 2 yr old replacement frame with almost no rust except for a few brackets and the bumper, bumper reinforcement and hitch. Replacing the bumper reinforcement (arrives today) and the hitch (junkyard acquisition Class IV OEM wire brushed and painted and ready to install). Going to try and wire brush the inside of the bumper and POR 15 the rust has not eaten through the bumper, yet. The other issue is there mild surface rust on the rear bed support bracket, wire brushing the rear support bracket and going to POR 15 that also. Then onto the Wool Wax.


    Does anyone know if there is a cure time for POR 15 until I can Wool Wax?

    I’d give it a few days to fully harden and then blast away.
