Four hours later and with my arms falling off I called it "mission accomplished", then headed back to put it in its indoor storage before this week's trip to Freightliner for the brake bolt recall and to have the dash AC inspected and/or fixed (as I mentioned in a separate thread last week).
Has anyone else been inclined to do a hand-wash on a rig of this size? Yeah, we may be nuts but the rig sure looks a lot better-cleaner than the delivery date, as a matter of fact....

I have a Windsport 29m and have washed it a number of times. Getting ready to have the front and rear caps wet sanded and waxed because of heavy sun damage and oxidation! Most times I pick a 2 day period when it will be warm and sunny and do half one day and the rest the next. Tryit, you'll like it better!!! Bob Trice
