Shit, mine came on 3 weeks ago.  Woke up and it was 68 in the house.  WAY too cold for me.

 I’m pretty sure I have a little more padding on my bones the you do. Lmao

Awesome! Just don't let him fall for do the wash, clay, and IPA wipe unless the paint is perfect. (people are doing that) I believe you must always correct everything in the paint before applying even if it is just a light cut to remove oxidation then a polish.

I have a local detail shop that is doing work I don't agree with, but people are still paying them. I have fixed one car with swirl marks under the ceramic and that was several hours of cutting and bringing back to a high polish. 

I am always here to help as much as I can. My goal is the best bang for the money as the most expensive ceramics can be quite misleading with their advertising and marketing.

I will pass this info onto him. Thanks Neal.

Humidity here is the worst...this 90 degrees feels like 110 but sticky sometimes I find it hard to breath outside and I'm used to it

My boat is still at my dock...but I don't think it will get used.  Just want to get it warm on the water before putting it on the trailer so I can winterize it warm.

I’m right at 6,000ft elevation. Low landers struggle to breathe here when visiting. Especially if they go for a hike.  

your telling me Mikey! The humidity was right around 90 percent when I visited the south this summer. Sweat rashes all over the place.

No ache from my bones until it gets below 20.  Usually closer to the single digits and below zero.  Unfortunately that is pretty frequent here.

That’s why they call it “relative” humidity. LOL 

 Seriously though. When I was out there once It got below about 80° it was 100%.

My fat ass for size referance. Hopefully get it clear coated tomorrow! Woot!

I wish I had 1/10th of that ability.  I'm working on a ~4'x8' canvas right now.  I hate everything about it so far.

:D

 

Also, you look like a thin Bert Kirshner in that pic.  Doing good brochacho chip.  "He ain't heavy.  He's my brother!"

I was asked to do an older Mustang Cobra. 93 or 94 can't remember for sure.

He claims it was taken to a professional detailed and there are swirl marks left they can't get out.

When I get it in the garage I will take some pictures.

If it's a '93 and red it's a single stage paint.  If it's a '94, it should be base/clear.  

Hoping it's a 93.  I LOVE the Fox Cobras!
