    Talking Summer Fun

    Picked up this Husqvarna lawnmower last summer and never really cleaned it off before putting it in the shed for winter.

    It's had a few mows this year already, and after finishing my yard yesterday I felt like showing it my appreciation.

    Here are some before/ dirty shots








    You can see it was very dusty and dirty. Hidden dog crap cracked the plastic tires

    I thought some Dodo Sour Power shampoo will do the trick after a quick rinse









    Ok, now for the FUN part
    I will protect this lovely orange paint with some Dodo Orange Crush




    Applying/ Curing




    Finished shots


    I even put some Armor All on the wheels











    I'll be shining next time I mow the lawn

    Thanks for taking a peek

    Lol- I know, but had to cut things short as the wife pulled up.
    Still have a bit of an ancient bottle of Armor all I've been trying to kill for years now. Figured better for the mower than the trash.

    Good job!

    I did this to my craftsman a few weeks back. Washed/then megs spray wax. When i cut last friday, i thought it was a new mower. Really, you have to do this every so often. Mowers are not cheap!

    Re: Summer Fun

    Great job! I had to give back the loaned lawnmower my Father-in-Law gave me (while he fixed our old one) this past weekend. I had like 5 min to pack it up, so I washed with DP Rinesless and then hit it with some Sonax Brilliant Detailer for a little bit of prot
