It is very tiring work, using muscles you do not normally use. I have one of those Simonize buffers that takes some of the work away but you still need a rag (old towel) to polish near obstructions. I decided beforehand to do just one side a day but I may even downgrade from that. I have all summer! I am using Mexican liquid wax that may be a little harder to remove once it hazes over. I may try a different brand for the next side.
Other than that not much going on. Norma is busy on all good days (and some not so good ones) in her garden. She had me build a bunch of trellis for her plants to climb. I had some imperfect cedar fencing boards that we salvaged from Brooks and Linda's "burn pile" that I ripped to make them so my materiel costs were nil except for a bit of glue and some nails. Their "burn pile" could keep me going with projects all year.
Good job! Nice to have the tools and the know how! Bet the weather there is good. Here today, 41C
ReplyDeleteColin suggets you use a product you get at Canadian Tire in the wax section but it is not exactly a wax but does a great job. It is in an orange plastic bottle.
ReplyDeleteLucky Norma to have such a handy man around. I do hope she is improving slowly.
Handy man projects = fun!
ReplyDeleteI love to use Meguiar's Liquid wax easy to apply and easy to buff, does a great job!
ReplyDeleteNice you can putter around with the burn pile too.
