For someone who corrects other's spelling mistakes, you have a lot of gall Scott. :) "Oshpro"? you mean Ospho "spary"? did you mean sparry, a crystalline mineral? "bascially"? please define. "Epozy" is that a new epoxy? "which is easily treated and stopped forever just about." make up your mind, does it or doesn't it? And besides all that, girdle and griddle are more closely related than you think. Girdle is the N. English and Scottish variation of griddle. Isn't it annoying when someone corrects another's spelling and use of English? alistair On 16-Jun-11, at 11:15 AM, Scott Daniel - Turbovans wrote: > What poetic writing. > I thought one 'girded' ones loins though. > or close to that..but not 'griddled' . > > sounds like you're havin' fun now ! > I love treating and fixing rust on vanagons. > I regard rust as falling into two main catagories... > 'surface rust' which is easily treated and stopped forever just about. > > and 'body cancer rust' .. > where you're replacing missing metal. > > on surface rust .. > I use Oshpro sometimes.. > watch out with that stuff, it'll etch a concrete floor badly. > on one car of mine ..to get it up inside frame rails..way back in > there.. > I got one of those motorized dental spray 'water-pic' things from a > drug > store.. > that'll spary two feet back into a channel..
