covered with diesel - 8/15/2007 6:03:44 PM    EuroGoldLS Posts: 3121 Joined: 2/9/2007 From: Princeton, NC, USA Status: offline I'm pissed. Dad and I went to one of our friends house, on the Blazer. On the way a dump truck gets in front of us and we smell diesel fuel, later the setting sun hits the windsheild and theres a haze.  The truck in front of us had apparently blown off a fuel line. Well, I just washed it with Dawn. I still have a slight haze, and I want to get it off before I put some wax back on it. Any tips? I'm gonna try to go over it with Orange, and if that doesn't get it to my liking, I'm gonna go over the whole thing with compound. I also noticed that the diesel had cut the paint on my emblem (I painted it with Krylon, my mistake). Which brings me to my next question. Where can I find a Black or CF decal for my emblem?  I did an ebay search and nothing turned up. _____________________________ My theory is that every disrict in the USA tries to send their lying scumbags to either prison or Washington D.C. -rivereye Post #: 1

I gave it another shot of Dawn and went over it a couple of times with finishing glaze, treated the whole thing with swirl remover and then waxed it. _____________________________ My theory is that every disrict in the USA tries to send their lying scumbags to either prison or Washington D.C. -rivereye (in reply to rabbit0102030) Post #: 5

It wasn't a dump truck but a garbadge truck and I got some liquid on my windshield and I tried everythng to get rid of the liquid. I had to get a NEW windshield. I was pissed. Nothing would remove it. I tried dawn, even tried professional cleaners nothing took it off. It sucked when you were driving and the sun would hit it _____________________________ 2001 Chevy Blazer 4x4, 4dr 4.3L Vortec V6 (in reply to mdk681) Post #: 9

It went away after about 3 weeks worth of washing. Not to mention I got out the industrial strength glass cleaner. _____________________________ My theory is that every disrict in the USA tries to send their lying scumbags to either prison or Washington D.C. -rivereye (in reply to quinnman105) Post #: 10
