Subject: Re: 23 OCT 16 by teebee on 2016/10/23 23:32:03 Hey guys, 7 hours later I got the pickup cleaned inside and out, then the Caddy washed and clean inside. Noticed that it had been 7000 miles and the monitor was down to 18%, so I decided to change the oil and filter. About the time I got finished changing oil #1 GS pulls in with his CTS, which is totally filthy, and he says Grandma said to bring this over to you to clean.....I said "You're going to help, aren't you?" "Sorry gramps, I have homework to do." So I took the Caddy off the lift, and put the Corvette back on, and dropped the oil out of it, as it had been 13 months and 4200 miles. While that was draining I started scrubbing the bugs off the front of GSs' Caddy. Finished the oil change on the Corvette, then got back to washing the GSs CTS. After washing it I noticed it didn't shed any water, so I decided to give it a coat of Rejex. I laid the coat on and noticed the headlights were getting bad, so I hunt down the headlight restore kit I bought some time back and proceed to do a restore, sanding with 1500 and 3000 grit, then treating it with the other chemicals in the kit. They look better, acceptable, but not like new as the package suggests. Cleaned out the inside and buffed the Rejex and it looks pretty darn good. I'm tired, but feel really satisfied with all I got done today. Listened to the 60s on 6 all day, makes it worthwhile. |
