Tonight bore witness to the final segment of the Riv getting treated with paint cleaner (step 1 in Meguiar's Deep Crystal system), and WOW, what a difference! See how the shadows of the mirror and door handle pop out? Mmm, not really? Well, she's a victim of poor nighttime lighting.
Another Riv task of the day was to apply for the mail-in rebate on the wiper blades I picked up a week-and-a-half ago. The one on the passenger side is already installed...the driver's blade awaits the replacement wiper arm, still not found on-line or in-store. In a 'eureka' moment this morning, I ran down to check the old arm for a part number, but no dice. There's a '3' emblazoned on it, but nothing else.
I'd like to get started on step 2, (the polish), but first, I'd like to tackle the wire wheels, bumpers, and fender skirts with some spray-on chrome cleaner. That will require a separate trip to the store, but that's okay, there's plenty to stock up on for Saturday morning's big outing.
Also on the task list for tomorrow night: digging the seat belts out from underneath the rear seat.
