Morning! I recently purchased a 2015 Silverado 2500 for myself and I’ve come across a few things I didn’t know if anyone else had experience with. 1.) the previous owner had what I assume was a toolbox bolted into the bed and removed it when he sold it so there are about 10 small screw holes through the bed liner, didn’t know if there was a good way to weathertight seal these. 2.) there is some dried concrete in the bed liner and some comments I saw were that chemicals used to remove it also ate away the bed liner so I’m trying to avoid those ones. Not sure if there was a good way to remove it. 3.) the trailer hitch sleeve reducer was left in for a while and has rusted into the hitch itself, I’ve tried hammering it from inside out, using WD-40 and a couple other products with no progress at all. -
Mods, please don't move this thread to the detailing thread for a couple of days. I need lots of feedback and this section gets the most traffic...THANKS OK guys and gals, I have a problem. My house is currently being repaired for a sinkhole. This morning the sinkhole repair company began working and within the first couple of minutes they had a pressure gauge to blow apart. The pressure was about 500PSI and the line was filled with grout. For those not knowing, the grout is concrete without any gravel or rocks. Clean up began immediately on my house, roof and the neighbors house. After the roof was mostly washed down, it was discovered that the grout had also landed on both trucks sitting in the driveway, on the other side of the house. I am not worried about the white 01 sierra, but the black 2015 Sliverado that still smells new, has under 11K miles is a total different story. To say I am pissed is an understatement. No one has ever touched the truck to wash it but me, not even the selling dealer. It has no swirls, no scratches, the paint is/was perfect. I brought out the pressure washer and only the top part of the chunks came off, leaving grey stains and some grout still attached. I did call one of GM-Trucks vendors (Adams Polishes) and talked to them hoping they had some miracle cure, no such luck. They suggested clay baring after a wash, but said there was a high probability that the truck would need painting afterwards. The sinkhole repair company called in a mobile detail guy, but I sent him packing as soon as he said it would scratch the truck getting it off, but then they could remove the scratches. Unacceptable in my book! So if anyone has a miracle cure, please let me know. I guess I might need to let their guy do the work, and then hold their feet to the fire once its screwed up, I don't know..... Having trouble getting the photos uploaded, will post them as soon as I can.
