    I know someone who used to freeze their cash in tupperware containers in a big block of ice , usually if they wanted something really bad they had talked their selves out of it before it thawed out.

    So now I am waiting on the pink Bombardier decals , a set of registration numbers , Xmas trees to reattach the seat and a new battery , all due in by this weekend . New reggies are something I always add to a flip ski , especially if the old ones are damaged like these are , they take up a lot...

    The deflector had a really nasty sun baked GTS decal on it, it wasn't coming off and leaving the paint intact , so I sanded it off with 80 grit on the DA , then I hand sanded it with 120 grit , hit it with bonding clear and then a heavy coat of primer. That baked out in the sun for about four...

    It's pulled and covered with wax paper , it still may stick but it will need a lot of sanding so it does not matter , the wax paper allows you to manipulate the epoxy , gelcoat , whatever you are using a lot better , it eliminates a lot of sanding and hopefully I can get this with one pull if I...

    The repair kit is in and it's not what I wanted but I am using it anyway , I wanted gelcoat paste, this is epoxy pure and simple, it comes with colorants and trust me it takes very little to make a color that is so far off it gets thrown in the trash, twice lol. Anyway the process is the same...

    Yep I have had to do the shave trick many time , I usually sprayed soapy water into the pump with a spray bottle, it's usually only on plastic cased pumps though. I haven't used the WSM wear rings lately or the WPS ones either for that matter, I need to get some more and check them out , I...
