The last couple days the weather has been hot and humid with late afternoon thunder showers, and that limits the amount of time I can spend out doors. Got new wheels and tires going on the...

I was getting ready to re paint so I thought I'd try the WD40 method recommended on this thread to rejuvenate the paint.
