Prospeeder Posted October 5, 2005 Author Report Posted October 5, 2005 hey, about the lip, will white grease last all winter, and protect them? please say it will, this things gotta just sit all winter and those are the only wheels i got for it, how much do i put on, light coat, coat the shit on, or what Quote
Prospeeder Posted October 5, 2005 Author Report Posted October 5, 2005 Last winter I didn't put anything on, I think I might just try polishing them every couple of weeks (Mothers). If I decide to get lazy and put grease I'll slap the shit on thick so I don't have to worry about it. well, did u use mothers every week or so, or did they turn to shit? or nothing happend? Quote
