    One dirty van

    My experience? They're the entitled type that think it's the job of lesser people to clean up their mess. Usually utilizing the "I'm so busy" claim. I tried to be nice one time and hire a housecleaning service to help my wife. She spent three days deep cleaning before they got there so they...

    And it's whisper quiet, and you can get the cord to sync two of them together if down the road you find you need more power. We RV, the Honda's for boondocks camping are the gold standard.

    Getting mirror shine on polished aluminum

    I use a product called Simichrome and a soft cotton buffing wheel on a die grinder on the final steps, I don't know if AGO sells either. It can be hard to find. To give you an idea this is mainly aluminum - the beast is the intake manifold because it's sand cast.

    Review: Griot's Garage Boss 21 Long Throw Polisher - Comparison To Rupes 21ES

    Great review. Curious question: How old is your Rupes? I'd seen a thread on generational changes and noticed yours had a red trigger and lock. Mine's black.
