I asked my rep there at the shop about cure times on the paint, being that I had several OR trips planned this month and next.
To my horror, he said the paint would need 30 to 60 days of cure time before I could test it on the trail. I was told to
be especially wary of mud.........[:@]

The Sewell event is 12 days out from the new paint and Barnwell tripis 22 out.......
I spoke to the GM over there about our event/your truck -- he said if its going to scratch, it'll scratch -- they only suggest you don't wax it for that time period. I think as long as you don't keep the mud on there for a week, you'd be fine. Even if mud did do something to the clearcoat/finish -- it seems that very top layer could be buffed relatively easily. I'm no expert in paint, but the GM said he wouldn't worry about our event and was going to push it though so you wouldn't be without a truck come gameday. We're goingdown sunday night/monday to scope out some trails - should be fun!

Woo Hoo.......................! ! ! ! !

I appreciate it Brian.... That does make me feel a bit better........Patrick had me pretty worried I have to admit.
All day long I've been staring at that "30/60" I wrote on my note pad when talking to him earlier and just cringed.........
Things are looking up! (No bird jokes here, please)

I figured worse case, since I already had the digs down in College Station, I'd at least trek down with you guys and socialize for the weekend.

Which reminds me: Rikki Ehlert, Special Events Coordinator, Sewell Automotive Companies ROCKS!
When I called the Marriott to secure accommodations, they said that the entire block of rooms for the Sewell event were booked. Actually, they said the entire facility was booked solid. I called Rikki for an alternative solution.....She said give her five....then called me back with a confirmation number for that weekend. Evidently, Rikki doesn't play.......

I wasn't sure what I was gonna do about Barnwell....Hell I'd have driven down, parked the truckand just spotted if I had to.

Again, thanks Brian.......

Enjoy your pre-run.....

Sorry to see that! And I know how you feel as my Camaro, when I lived in NYC, was broken into so many times I stopped locking the doors. I could not afford time off from work to keep getting the window fixed plus after the 3th time my insurance was going to drop me for any more claims.[/align]I finally caught 3 guys breaking into my car and some neighbor's car in my underground parking garage late one night. They attempted to come at me with what turned out to be sharpened screw drivers.Dealt with that.[/align]They stopped for a while then started with the break-ins again. For some reason they never touched my car again. Either they knew it had a silent pager alarm or they did not like ....[/align][/align]
