I tested a microscopic area on the far inside of the barrel and it came out ridiculously sharp... are you telling me the face of the rim is painted? Wheels are exactly what are being cleaned in Adam's instruction video for the metal polish application.

Yup, the sport wheels are painted, my friend. Be careful.

Just got a sick Mini GaleForce back to bed, now I'm staying awake/checking the forum for a few minutes to make sure he has settled down.

He's been fighting a cold for the past couple of weeks, it has turned into a harsh cough. He's complaining about a soar throat, and upset tummy, he also has a slight fever. He does ok when he's awake (other than the cough). We were able to get a couple more hours of sleep. Hopefully I can get a nap in before I head to work this afternoon.
