To Our Last Blog About Dirty Windshields – This is Amazing!!

Posted by painttouchupandgo on

We were researching dirty windshield winners, and found two we liked.  One simple one and one that we couldn’t believe!  Amazing art, believe it or not.  Apparently this gentleman uses dirty windshields as his canvas.  Our only question is – How can you even want to clean a windshield with such art on it?  Like Chalk Art, it’s the type that you take a picture, then wipe it off.  Not easy to do, but when it comes to windshields, it’s important to do for your safety.  Enjoy the pictures!

This is Scott Wade's windshield art. Amazing.

What we are used to. Be it the kids in the neighbourhood or our spouse and children. 🙂

Note To Mechanic

Posted by painttouchupandgo on

An auto mechanic received a repair order that read: “Check for
clunking sound when going around corners.”

Taking the car out for a test drive, he made a right turn, and a
moment later he heard a ‘clunk’.

He then made a left turn and again heard a ‘clunk’.

Back at the shop he opened the car’s trunk, and soon
discovered the problem.

Promptly he returned the repair order to the service manager
with the notation, “Removed bowling ball from trunk”.

Oil Change Gone Wrong

Oil Change

45 year-old Amy Brasher was arrested in San Antonio, Texas,
after a mechanic reported to police that 18 packages of
marijuana were packed in the engine compartment of the car
which she had brought to the mechanic for an oil change.
According to police, Brasher later said that she didn’t
realize that the mechanic would have to raise the hood to
change the oil.
