Cardaddy - About 30 minutes south of Atlanta is in the house

Just wanted to introduce myself to the other Georgia boys. Bryan & Jean-Claude, we`re neighbors.... sorta`. :wink: As I mentioned in the `welcome` section, you`ll normally find me on AGO or MOL, but I finally decided to go ahead and register here as well. Might as well stop lurking.... huh? :eyebrows:

Welcome to the area Tony.

Welcome to Autopia!

Thanks guys! :biggrin:

As I`ve said over on AGO, I don`t pretend to be on the level of you guys, but I do tend to know more about this (game, hobby, even business) than anyone else I know. (Speaking of friends and family which are NOT forum members.) :smile:

Perhaps we can spend some time together one day... non gratis on my part of course. Perhaps under the heading of `paying it forward`. (on your behalf, certainly not mine) :heelclick: :lol1:

What would be fun is to have a local meet up at Andretti`s. We can race some carts and drink some brewski.

You guys have fun. After working two jobs for 60-80 hours a week and family time...

Mike... Bryan,

Sorry about not re-replying last week. Got really busy. (That`s a good thing!):clap2:

And speaking of busy. So... how long is TOO long to spend on an interior? My beautiful, and VERY LUCKY wife I might add (of 35 years) got to spend the entire weekend with me, working side by side on a Lexus LX470.

Me: Honey, look what I got you for Mothers Day.

Her: What?

Me: Well, you got to spend the ENTIRE weekend working, side by side with ME! Aren`t you happy you got to spend so much time with me?

Her: Uh, well during the WEEK I`d rather be working with you SURE. But on the WEEKEND... I think I`d rather be doing something else! :tongue2:

The vehicle belonged to one of my doctors, lives in Lake Spivey. The cream colored leather interior however looked like it`s been living at Chucky Cheese!!! :nervous:

Two of us, some quality time together, and a "surgically clean" interior emerged some 6+ hours later.:woot2::clap:

The good part is he paid what it was worth. (Even you`d been happy JC.)

Plus I`m getting a number of free out patient laser surgical procedures.:spot

The bad part is the kids will probably screw it up again!:nervous:

After all that, it was just a matter of a quick once over with D151 and a couple coats of `charged` D156. Did I mention it was black? Typical Toyota/Lexus single stage.

Been there done that 6 hours of fun on interiors before.

What else have you been working on Tony?
