  • DIY - Dave's 2005 Suburban paint job has been flaking a way for some time now, and he finally decided to do something about it with just Rustoleum spray paint. How do you think it looks? Better than Maaco?

    NICE! Another UAW member. I also worked at GM Fremont, CA in the paint dept. I was a masker from 71-80.

    Those “rattle cans” of new are nothing like spray cans of old. 😉 I used one of those tall 😮 Rust oleum rattle cans on lawn furniture that looked like crap ( primed and sanded of course) and WoW! Amazing results. The Burb looks great!

    I have a 92 4x4 silverado. The roof n hood does it. I spent 6500.00 to have it stripped and repainted in 2001. The roof had peeled and rusting. The hood is peeling. It's white. I quit buying GM products after my lumina ltz leaked oil and would not start half the time. I bought a ford and traded it in 3 years for a nissan. The nissan never went back to dealership for nothing. I sold it and bought a ram 2018 (ordered) red 4x4 with everything the factory would allow. Never a min of trouble so far.

      It does seem to be GM white the most. What a pain.

    There's no end to Daves hidden skills , that's the kind of job I like , 5 cases seems more than fair , saved yourself a fortune and it looks great ...had to chuckle about Daves premonition to get the beers before the pay talk 😂

    • @WattsOnWheels
      @WattsOnWheels  13 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Sneaky getting the beer first. LOL Don't think that will work next time though.

      I'm gonna keep as long as possible, then pick it up, dust it off and get some more out of her as long as I can still find parts. :)

    Dave you’re really making it rough on the less enthusiastic husbands like me. I think I’m going to have to bring this up at the next meeting and see what the brothers have to say about this dangerous behavior of yours.😉😆👍🏼😎

    • @WattsOnWheels
      @WattsOnWheels  13 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      I still have the majority vote...Oh, no I don't, Karen does. I'll try and rectify my dangerous behavior. See you at the meeting. LOL

    Dave, I think it is time for a contract renegotiation. You are a highly skilled worker and need to be compensated as such! I will represent you (for a small fee) if you like! 🤣🤣🤣

    • @WattsOnWheels
      @WattsOnWheels  13 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Small fee...beer right? LOL You did see the last negotiation didn't you? th-cam.com/video/SRUV7FAeOeA/w-d-xo.html

    Hello Dave and Karen I had a 1998 Chevy Lumina it was white too and the paint was peeling

    • @WattsOnWheels
      @WattsOnWheels  13 วันที่ผ่านมา

      For some reason white was bad. Thx for watching.

  • @Lescqe3uj
    @Lescqe3uj 14 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    It’s not just GM paint. My wife bought a 2017 Hyundai “white” and three years later the dealer repainted the entire car. No cost to us.

    • @WattsOnWheels
      @WattsOnWheels  13 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Yep, Karen saw a Honda the other day also white. Glad they repainted that for you at no cost.

      @WattsOnWheels  12 วันที่ผ่านมา

      The storage unit will not let me work on it there. I will have a place to work on it this summer. Videos will be coming then. Thanks for asking.

    • @WattsOnWheels

      No rebuild yet...still all original.

    Hey Dave did you paint my 2000 Chevy express cargo van? Maybe you can help me repaint that too lol

    • @WattsOnWheels

    How many beers for the interview, to find out how many beers it took to paint it?

    • @WattsOnWheels
      @WattsOnWheels  13 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      6. I think 6 should be the minimum for everything.
