How can you win your dad-in-law's heart?

[zckid]

Hello friends

It makes me sometimes wonder how to make dad-in-law happy. I guess I’ve got the recipe to have a very happy father-in-law!

Well, it’s not a visit to the HQ of Toyota Motor Inc. It's more about his ride.
He’s got a Toyota NZE (some old pics).

And I’m gonna clean beneath it...

Rinseless Engine Clean!

I needed quite a few towels, a toothbrush, a few soft paint brushes and Bilt Hamber Surfex (got same from my returning relatives from France), Plastics were dressed with CG New Look Trim Gel



My test spot

That’s what we (son-in-law) look for… before going any further … under the watchful eyes of DAD!rops:

Hard work now:

Not so easy to take pics at this stage… hands all dirty la! So needed a part-time photographer coz I wouldn’t want to use the camera with dirty hands.

My assistant with the phone cam

A 50/50 shot

Goodbye to a decade+ of stained dirt

“Transformed!” u’d say

More hard work:

Tackling every part of it…

A small section at a time…

Fighting the enemy contigent…

One soldier at a time…
:bash:

Victory is neither a dream…

Nor it is distant far

It is at your doorsteps

Nearer still

It is said that “victory is sweet”

I say “Victory is sweeter… if the war is fought with passion, patience and prayers, without the least drop of blood!"

I'm grateful to Almighty for listening to my prayers…

And I thank all of you for sharing your invaluable skills and experience. :iagree:

Your thoughts and advice are most welcome as always.

May God bless you all.

Excellent work with a water based product.

Q1. Total time on project?
Q2. Any issue with overspray on the wind screen?

Thnks for your encouraging words. Much appreciated:dblthumb2:

1. Total time = 4+ hrs (still learning

2. Overspray = no

I followed KC's instructions, spray on the paint brush, one or 2 puffs, then agitate. Used some rag towels to clean up, did it bit by bit, so it was tidy on the whole.

thanks
