Super VRT almost maimed me!!!

[Guest Uncle Jesse]

I was loading a mattres and boxspring into my truck yesterday morning to bring back from Florida. I had the mattres on the bottom so i could squish it between the wheel-wells. I was standiong on the bedrail cover that i had so lovingly detailed with the Adams Super VRT a few days before, and before i could think, my foot slid off, the right foot flailed and slipped off and i went literally head over heels over the side and landed on my back on the in-laws driveway! Caught myself partially with the hand and elbow.. didn't hit my noggin on the ground luckily....

Just a warning, that stuff can make it slick!! But it does look nice and clean right now...

I'm not sure about Super VRT yet. Used it on some of the black plastic panels on bike and it seemed to go on "bloachy" (sp). Does it need to be buffed after? Also very hard not to get on painted sufaces but, then again it seems to wipe off without any paint issues.

Update: Well, my left wrist has not stopped hurting since the fall, so last week i went to the doctor.. turns out i have pulled some tendons in my wrist from the fall. Now, i have to go see an orthopedic specialist! Be careful out there guys!

 

Always better to break something! :lol: Sorry man, but I've felt your pain!

Be happy you didn't have one leg in the bed and one leg out of the bed! That would hurt!!!

If I had a dollar for every time detailing my truck sent me to the hospital....

 

 

..... well I'd have $2 but you get the idea.

i like to put it on my motorcycle tires....just sayin lol jp

 

If you actually do this, best to use a rag that was used to buff off excess... SVRT CAN sling up onto the face of the tire and cause MAJOR issues...

Indeed... but the truck looks great! I didn't get too hurt, mostly the prides, as i fell in front of my wife and mother-in-law... got some pretty low scores, as i wasn't able to stick the dismount at all. The Swiss judge is really harsh...lol..

When I detailed my wife's RDX, I was standing on a stool, doing the roof with BW, section by section. I lean over to apply it on a new BW and put my hand on a finished section with a MF towel underneath so I wouldn't handprint it.

 

It was so slippery the MF towel and my hand went shooting off to the right and my chest hit the top of the door where it meets the roof.

 

The sacrifices we make to keep our cars looking awesome....

Went down in flames but looking good and protected.

Hope your not in any pain. Drive safe.

[Chris@Adams]

Ralph you may need to apply SVRT twice, the plastic may soak it up differently! If that doesn't work try buffing with MF towel.

I just SVRT'd my Rhino Lining. It looks amazing now!!! Apparently I wont be getting in that bed anytime soon.

If you really want to go skating...put some undercarrige spray on bed of your truck

[RedexInLA]

Just glad you didn't scratch your paint...

That would have been so bad.

Happy though that your ok.

Most all dressings will do that, NEVER put it on your foot padel or brake.

I just remembered Wayne... I have it on my truck edges now and guess what... I have a queen bed to take to the lake this weekend in the bed of it. lol I'll remember to watch my step! lol

Lol.. not a chance Anthony! Yeah, i had slipped a few weeks ago on the p[lastic piece on the bumper... was operating three hours of sleep yesterday morning, trying to get loaded up to drive back home.. forgot what i was standing on...oh well, i still bounce pretty well at 37...

[BlueGenCoupe]

It can be lethal in the wrong hands. ..... Send your stuff to me before you cause more harm to yourself

[MAYBEN]

glad your ok!

[Chewy]

I did our whole boat with SVRT and my brother drove it to the dock after putting it in the water. Later that night he was sitting on a plastic chair and slipped off. His shorts had SVRT on them... lol

At least the paint on your truck was shiney and while you were down there you could check for cuts and scrapes in the reflection!
