We've got maybe a week of rainy days predicted after tomorrow, and seeing how good Meg's HCD was with hydrophobicity, I wanted/needed to finish off the rest of the FJ. Did everything but the wheels and the windshield. I even weighed the bottle before, so after doing all the paint, including...

Work Health and Safety, strengthened my favourite work platform, and added some anti-slip tape. I've had this thing for maybe 30 years.

16C, feels like 9 (60/48), winds gusting at 56kmh.

Gorgeous vehicle, that first front shot with partial shade, the reflections are awesome.

I've had my eye on it for a little while, but was waiting for it to go on sale, and also I didn't want to buy something new without having finished something off (Red Mist), I also found I have an almost full bottle of Meg's Last Touch D155 at the back of the shelf, I'll be passing that on to my...

Both doors have Dodo Juice Supernatural Hybrid Wax topped with Red Mist, but knowing we were getting rain overnight, I put some Meg's Hybrid Ceramic Detailer on the front door, but not the back, as a test, there is a difference, less water stayed on the door with HCD on it. HCD No HCD

I may be able to confirm that in the morning, I put it on the front passenger door and quarter panel of the FJ, and it's supposed to rain overnight.

At 7am we were at 0.5° (32f)with a feels like in the negative, but we made it to 18° (64). Not quite short sleeves on the walk this morning.

Bought this, 30%off Did this, performed as expected, smells great, reminds me a lot of TWHS Ceramic spray products.

Way back when I was searching for my FJ, I sat in an 86 at a Toyota dealership, I was surprised at how comfortable it was, and at how easily I fitted. I do like the idea of having weekend fun car, and I would love a V8 again, but I also appreciate that it's more fun driving a slow car fast than...

Soft or hard boiled?

Could be worse, I wonder if the new Kia Tasman will make its way over to the US?

Did my customary walk around after bringing the Qashqai back in. I might need to get some touch up paint. Driver's door edge. And these 2 are on the passenger side. Nothing new on the FJ though.
