Who's doing/done their winter prep?

[efnfast]

Supposed to snow next week ( ), so I figured I'd better start my prep .

2 layers of collonite 845 on everything here. (even on stuff I'm parking for the winter, heh)

[Gianni D]

both my wife's and my vehicle have a layer of 845 topped with OCW. I'm considering doing another layer on both cars in the next few weeks.

Although I have a couple months 'til the bad weather really kicks in, I've gone with a couple coats of sealant and RainX'd the windows all-around. The stuff is fun to see in action .

I've also checked the underbody and located a few spots where the factory oozy rubber-type coating has worn or chipped away. I must head to the hardware store and pick up some black spray sealant of sorts...gotta keep the rust away!

If the weather's nice, I'm doing mine this weekend. If not next weekend. I'm planning on a couple layers of FK1000P.

I did my wife's car last week (IW845) an plan on doing my truck this week.

[tom p.]

On my son's truck (he's 16 on Thursday) I just put 2 layers of z2p with zfx. On wife's car this weekend I put on 2 coats of dgps 3.0 One coat saturday, one coat sunday. The jet ski's go dg501 followed by polycharged dg105, also this done this past weekend. My company vehicle has to wait till next weekend, cause I am worn out. It is a blizzard pearl highlanader which I am thinking about giving a couple coats of blackfire wet diamond. I have never used BF before, any comments on it's durability?

[Daniel3507]

my Blackfire Wet Diamond should be here this week so most likely next weekend for me. what should you use for plastics, if anything

[MDRX8]

303 protectant is good on plastic.

I did the YukonXLD a while back and I won't redo it until at least next spring.

Six applications (?layers? who knows, but I did try to accomplish that...) of FK1000P except for some exterior trim surfaces where I used KSG instead (six applications that *did* layer).

Did the undercarriage, including touching up some surface rust and refreshing some rust-proofing, esp. on electrical connections/grounds, the underbody seams, and around the bodymount bushings. Detailed the spare, Amsoiled its mouting hardware, and made sure it has the proper PSI.

I plan to trade the MPV, so I'm not gonna knock myself out over that one. I kinda doubt I'll do any real winter prep to any of the other vehicles except for mounting the winter wheels/tires; I'll just keep doing what I always do year-round.
