Perhaps a good waxing will help.

Back in 81 (or was it 82?) I used to know this chick that would work on my nuts all day long! Needless to say, my nuts were the envy of all the bikers in my neighborhood. As my nuts are getting a little older they require more work to keep em polished and rust free.

After reading thru these I'm most concerned that snap-on tools help keep nuts shiny......Hope I'm thinking about the wrong kind on snap-on, but if not





Eh, on second thought, please don't.

Smile How do you keep your nuts shiny?
BEWARE of finding someone who will spend hours shinning and polishing your nuts, they may just be missing "THEIRS"
