First order of business. Before After

Already have quick connects. Might have to buy more since I have them on my electric as well. New hose is on the way. I ordered an Adams 40' with 20% coupon. What does an oil drain tube do? I already changed oil since who knows what previous owner had in it. Just used some leftover Kirkland...

Well I picked up that Simpson 3300psi for $175 today. Fires up first pull, no leaks, tons more powerful than the electric I have. Seems that pump would be stupid easy to replace if need be down the road.

My area seems to be plentiful on used pressure washers well under $200. I have an electric 1800PSI 1.2GPM already but wanting something with more power to do some cleanup on loose paint around the house trim. General consensus seems to be "get one with a honda engine". Are Kohler or Briggs...

FWIW I feel like most kits have too much of a gap between the grit's. You get 500 then 800 then 3000. Buy automotive sandpaper from 600-5000 and do gradual steps by hand (wet sand). I did a 3m kit once, they looked good but the cut marks from the drill attachment with the 500 were still there.

AT&T doesn't have home internet in the northeast but good point. My mind went to wireless service. We are Comcast/Verizon country. I have Fiber from a company called Glo/Shentel

We strictly use MVNO's in our household (US Mobile, Mint, Redpocket, etc.) I pay for 1 year plans in advance so they have no info for me on file other than my name and phone number. No SSN or CC to be found.

My mechanic tested the battery during inspection last fall and said I may want to consider replacing it before winter. It's a Costco Interstate installed Dec 2019. I didn't opt to replace it. Came home and tested it with one of these and it said it was perfectly fine. Here we are near spring...

Here's the broken one. Any idea what I'm in for? can I just junkyard one?

This is on the front bumper of my Volvo XC60. As you can see the one on the left is broken and needs replaced. It appears to be connected to something internally.

All amazon products are bloated trash imo (fire tablets, fire sticks, echo's, etc.) All ruined with all the amazon bloat. I'll take a roku or google TV box any day over any amazon media device. Just avoid the no name Android TV boxes on amazon, they are often infected with malware.

Do 3000, then followed by a compound, then a polish and they will sparkle

Quick and dirty use a high cut compound either by hand or with drill attachment followed by a polish and then a paste wax Heavy yellow oxidation wet sand with 800-1500-3000-5000 then compound-polish-wax.
