Dad Shined My Lid

Dad and Mom were hoping my lid would be a bold beautiful shiny red when it was done

(its not done)

but it is sun burnt and has pitting in the red paint.

 

Here's my lid when Mom washed it, the black isn't coming off. Dad says that's OK because no one will see it anyway.

 

Here it is before Dad waxed & buffed it.

 

And here it is all finished and as shiny as it's going to be.

Not bad if I do say so myself.

 

 

One spot looks like I had a crack.

 

So today Mom got a bunch of new stainless steel screws, nuts, bolts and washers. I'm going to be sparkly and bright.

 

These are my old screws and washers that held on the lid holder on-ers inside my lid.

 

 Mom took them off and Dad waxed & buffed my lid.

Here are the new screws, washers and nuts.



 

 And here they are in my lid, just not tightened down.

 

 

 Then Mom climbed up inside me and cleaned all the gunk off my roof from under my lid. Mom is not going to replace all these screws that are left up here, they are doing fine as they are right now.

 

 

There is still lots to do, lots and lots and I'm going to be feeling very good pretty soon.
