Busy weekend.
The van has a ton of things to address and keep me busy.
And as I have gotten to know it more and more while washing, cleaning and touching and feeling it, I am realising that I lucked out again.
Keep in mind, there could still be 101 surprises hiding out of sight somewhere.
Mate John, one of my old lodgers and driving instructor, who helped with the electrics of the Rezin Rockit, came around yesterday.
He is a tech fan and bit of a guru.
He really liked the van, casting a critical eye over it.
Also got straight into tuning the intergalactic radio for me
One of the jobs I had identified after washing the van at first, was the Center Line billet alloy wheels that needed to be brought back to life and shine.
Up close they looked really tired.
So I got some Autosol metal polish and some rags to just try it out……
John had the camera.
Test spot looked much better.
And 35 minutes later….
Autosol all the way round.
And then a lovely pic, possibly my favourite so far.
140 plus minutes well spent.
Another hour to be spent today.
So that was a great result.
Overnight I remembered how the Poorboys wheel sealant added to the S10 wheels I had refurbished.
So this morning I got the tub, some rags and started again.
Clearly this sealant polish was still improving the work as it took more ally from the surfaces.
Elbow grease time.
And the RESULT IS AWESOME.
It really is rewarding when you see the changes, day to day.
And the photos allow you to look back and SMILE.
Again, video for the lazy traveler .

Weekend over.
