or gas prices or import taxes or shipping fees or swamp ass humidity or traffic or shitty roads or traffic or traffic

 

you forgot traffic, traffic, and traffic.

 

this is more penetrating that WD40 and really gets into cracks and such, you can see it bubble as it works it's way into spots. It does have a yellow tint to it so if you are concerned about that.

 

The yellow tint won't stain though... We use this to preserve engines while dismantled and it cleans up very well and leaves no color afterwards

 

If you want real penetrant, buy Zep 45 or TY6350 from any Deere dealer, or any generic penetrant spray lube.. The spray fluid film stuff is not so much a lubricant as it is a corrosion inhibitor...

 

i'm just looking for rust prevention in spots like drilling the bed for the bed extender and inside the fender for my hood struts etc. They say use touch up paint but even when you do that driving a selftapping screw literally strips off the new paint and exposes some bare metal even though it's a relatively small area. So yeah I'd just like to hit some spots that need no lubing at all.

 

I would put silicone in between the two parts you screw together, the once screwed together coat the front and back with silicone and be done with it... Moisture can't attack what it can't get to

 

okay.

 

If you're screwing something to the sheet metal, and you put silicone between the two parts prior to screwing them together, you will keep moisture from creeping into the area between the pieces, and when you completely cover the screw head and screw shank on the back side, you made that screwed joint sealed off from the elements...

 

Gas isn't really that bad. $2.59/gal (Safeway or Costco). Cheaper than some places in the mainland!

 

Shit.! i didn't know traffic was that bad. last time i was there was 2006. I think i'd still rather live there than texas!!! but ill soon be in Washington state!

 

I have a nice drive every morning.

 

I'm dizzy.

 

you don't work on PH anymore?

that does look like a nice drive...and a nice drive home too...now I'm jelly

 

I can get to work in 20 minutes most times of the day/night. However during morning/afternoon traffic Im happy is the drive is less than an hour....

 

Not on PH anymore. Our next big project is right in the middle of downtown Honolulu. That's where the traffic sucks, and there's no parking at the jobsite. Only street parking. FML.
I'm still learning how to use the Gopro.

 

Holy Chit!

 

12 miles in an hour and a half is what? 8 mph???

 

Which site? Collections?
