That looks like house dust......
I guess dirty by Felix Unger standards.....:rolleyes::D |
I think that must be the after pics. But we need before, too :)
|
Ooooops, missed a spot.
You better clean it all over again, wouldn't want to get your garage/house filthy! |
My shop foreman told me to clean it!

"Filthy -- to me."
|
Just ride it through a car wash, and you'll be good to go.
|
From now on, only ride on dry, paved roads.
|
An Aurora… those went scarce around here quite a while ago.
Nice power plant. Very unGM like interior for its day. |
Cleaning and polishing the Tomii is therapy.

Beautiful cat!
No offense, but that's not so grubby...... |
Once worked with a fellow with the last name Fujii. He was pretty fastidious. :)
Sweet bicycle. I tend to treat a couple of mine with similar concern. Others... not so much. Shame on me. |
Dude- it's got hairs growing on it!!!!
|
When took my Holdsworth apart, about a year ago, i cleaned all the parts and sent the frame to [MENTION=381793]gugie[/MENTION] for modification. When I got it back, freshly powder coated, I built it back up. And it looked pretty clean. Not as clean as that Tomii, but clean for me. Oy, you should see it now... what a mess.
|
I saw "Filthy Tomii" and thought "Tomei" and well, enough said.
Bummer. |
My bikes tend to have that "ridden" look.
|
In the past year I ride a bike till the drivetrain gets dirty they hang it up and pull down a clean one, in a year or two I guess I will have to start cleaning them up.
|
And still very purty...what a beauty.
|
Nao Tomii is a fabulous bike builder, and you are a smart and discerning rider. I would bet that he and his wife would approve of the dirt-
Nao gets "beausage". |
