I had an hour to kill while the dog was at his hair dressers appt this morning so I decided to S&W the truck.
I found that the passenger side was fairly well covered with pinpoint sized black spots......like road tar. I don`t know what it was but I discovered that it didn`t "wipe" off.
I began to think that I`d need to get out the tar remover and I didn`t really want to do that and then have to rewax so I just tried wiping harder with the WW towel and S&W and the spots were coming off with pressure and repeated rubbing.
I don`t like hard work:scared so I decided to try the PC. I installed a finishing pad (probably could have used a slightly more abrasive pad), cranked it up to high speed, and wet the pad down with S&W. I also wet the panel I was working on and let the S&W sit for about 30 secs before I started working it.
It didn`t take but a little work with the PC and S&W to get all those little black spots off the truck and I don`t have to re-wax/seal the truck. YIPPEE!!
It took quite a bit of S&W, 6 or 8 oz, (STEVE!! Quit smiling!!) but it got the job done very nicely with very little work, and with a 5 gallon bucket of the stuff on hand I can afford to use it freely! :D and Steve and I are both happy campers because of it.
Yet another use for S&W. Gotta love the stuff!!....and I got the pup picked up on time. (his new "do" looks cool too)
