Leroy Thanks for that info on the sound system. I think I will look into
that two. Have you ever used RejeX soil barrier / anti- stain protection
before? It is supposed to be used on aircraft. Bugs & dirt & stains will not
stick to the paint. I got some at the RV show in Tampa last winter. Goes on
easy
& off easy. Buy the way I lived in north Tampa for 10 years in the 60's.
I'm from the north & moved back.

I was born and raised inTampa. Brutal summers, not much better in Niceville.
Wish I could move back out West. We'll see. What are you doing with two
Birds?

Thanks very much Leroy. I''ve known Smarthome for some time & like
their products. Will try them in the Bird. Stay cool in FLA. I lived
in Tampa before we came to the mountains. Remember the summers there
all too well.

Curt That looks like I might have to try that. Always looking for
something good. The Rejex is $100.00 a gal. It was $20 a quart where I got it.

There are several Polymer Sealant products that work very well to seal
paint, release bug splatter, etc. I use/buy mine from MARK V,
$22.00/gal. Cheap by the gallon, and the professional detailer use the
Mark V products here in the SMOG CAPITAL.

Don:
The sound system really is a good value. Don't need to run a bunch of wires.
Never heard of rejeX. Presumably it can be used on paint. Where do you buy
it?
I went to school in Brandon. Mom still lives in Palm River. Now she is very
old.

Hi Don:
Went on the net and found RejeX. I have used CorrosionX on aluminum. Same
manufacturer. How does it perform. Sound like the product replaces wax. Is
that correct?

Don,
Look on the MARK V web site http://www.mark-v.com/ The site isn't
maintained the best. Go to the bottom and click on POLISH and then
check IP-100 Poly Shine, or IP-200. For many years now I have used the
IP-100 on all my vehicles, light or dark color, Bird, Truck, Cars, etc.
(too many vehicles, 42 foot wide driveway and it's filled). Their
products are great. The folks that have seen our Bird can tell you the
Bird looks like new (paint was in pretty good condition when we bought
the Bird, but required some work). The first time you apply it, it takes
slightly longer to get the coating on (I can tell you in detail about
this), but after the first coat, and you redcoat within 9 to 12 months,
it goes on so easy it is unbelievable, and after drying it comes off so
easy. Keep this in mind...years ago (maybe today too) when a new car
buyer was offered the expensive coating/shine that would last almost
forever...this stuff is the same thing...just doesn't cost you hundreds
of dollars, but you do the work, which really isn't bad.

You do need to purchase the covered sponge(s) to apply the product. Our
local detail supply store sells them. Terry towels work great for
removal. On our '87, lots of rivets, I use a tooth brush to remove the
residue around all rivets, windows, awning hardware, etc. when I'm
removing the dryed IP-100...I refuse to leave any build up.

Contact MARK V. Let me know if you need to me purchase the product and
have it shipped to you. I'm glad to do that. You pay only the cost,
nothing more, not even my cost to drive over there. I stop in there at
least once a month so no big deal. I have nothing to do with the
companies. I'm just willing to promote their great products because of
my experience using their products.

What can I say? One is never enough, right? I bought the 74FC as a
project because the previous owner pulled the Ford gas engine &
installed a Detroit 6V53T with the 4 speed Allison gearbox. It also has
a 15 kw Kubota genset & 3 roof ACs. Nothing inside but a rear bedroom
with drawers & closets, shower, bath sink, toilet & a Dometic refer. No
other seating or galley cabinets in it. Was built as a mobile showroom
for a clothing manufacturer. I planned to design a galley for it & put
seating up front. Not sure what I will do with it now. That Detroit
does move it pretty good down the highway though.

Then I came across the PT40 here in MT & decided to get it too. Then
started the work to refurbish/restore it. Am in the middle of that
project now. Next step will be to repaint it. All the prep work for
painting is about completed. Just seem to always have a project or 2
going on so thought the PT40 would be a good one. The wife has decided
that she really likes it so we plan to use it for a few years.

Terry,
Just curious what color is the 74. I saw one [no idea of year] in Albany, Ga.
several years ago that a fellow had. The best I remember he followed the Rodeo
circuit. It had only a bedroom and bathroom in rear the rest was a showroom. He
had a very expensive line of custom boots [$500.00 up] and belts and other
leather items he sold. He had some health problems and was pretty old then. It
was a solid dark green not attractive at all.

This may well be the same one Howard. It's 2 shades of green (medium &
a lighter shade) with a white separation stripe plus white roof.. Not
too bad but wouldn't have been my first choice for colors. The coach
has 60k on it & the engine & gearbox about 20k according to the invoices
for same. I bet it's the same as I talked to the factory & they
confirmed that it was built to the owners specs. I have the blueprints
& it's still the same as the day it was built inside.
