town homes are pretty cool.. we looked at a few but most of them are ajoined at the house, and not the garage.
We weren't looking at any single homes because we want to avoid the responsibilities that come with one. Mostly I looked at Condos in downtown Chicago. My desires though were too $$ so we will continue on in the suburbs for now.

What's the easiest/cleanest way to remove plastidip?

I spent 2 hours removing plastidip by hand from 3 wheels this afternoon and there's lots of patches left and I didn't do the inside of the wheels. Goo gone works for removing trouble spots but I ran out and don't really want to order more.

Is it safe to pressure wash my wheels to get it all off?

Wow I thought it was way easier than that to remove :ugh2: I wonder if something like a credit card is safe for the finish. But I think a pressure washer would be perfectly fine with the proper nozzle (one with a flat, wide spray pattern or an adjustable one set to a wide spray) and assuming you don't use it on full power if you high power one. Although I have no experience with the product, so I don't know how it will respond to a pressure washer vs peeling it off by hand vs some other method.

Not a fan of the black roof with the Gun Metallic color. In fact, the reason I haven't done any accents (other than darken up the already smoked Z side markers) is because I can't decide on anything that I really like. Right now my plans are to color match the door handles and my front/rear EVO-R Z emblems.
sounds good, mr.jar. GL on the project! :tup:
