    Touched up the rim of my wheel tonight with a new paint pen I just got. Not perfect but much better! Hope it lasts and doesn't wash away immediately :fingerscrossed:

    Got to touch up some scratches?

    Hope to get back into my county's highway department in the next few years as a full time employee. They're expanding a ton in the next 5 years and will be hiring hopefully soon :fingerscrossed:

    I don't have any scratches (That I know of), just years of brake/road dust caked on. The manual car wash I went to did nothing to em, gonna have to get some stronger stuff.

    I'm going to school for mechanical engineering. When I'm not doing schoolwork I work for a contractor. Pretty fun little job, teaches me a lot about carpentry/home improvement.

    Wish I was able to polish my wheels. They are fake chrome and more of a paint or powder coat. It's called PVD. If you do polish it you'll wear off the painted on coating :annoyed:

    That is quite unfortunate, I've seen some of that fake chrome when it starts to peel off, not a great look. Mine are thankfully some type of solid metal so I have some hope of cleaning them successfully.

    If I ever figure one out I'll let you know haha, seems like a lot of products nowadays need better designs.

    Yup tell me about it :annoyed:
    Dad's 08' F350 has reel chrome. They really polish up nicely!

    Need to be designed better and built to last. My old engines are from the 30s and 40s and still run like a champ but rattles everything on my work bench like crazy! Need to go back to making stuff like that!

    Pretty new market really, with the epas new rules it's about to explode.

    most options are 10k and when you need several hundred it adds up
