Car battle scars, let's see yours.

So this is something a bit different.

I don't know about you guys but every time I work in a car be it cleaning it or changing a bulb I always end up worse off.

Anyway these are what I was left with after changing the headunit and the headlights and also a quick clean. They don't look much but all drew blood.

Nothing wrong with a bit of spanner rash

those hands look good enough to go on any tv advert ,they make mine look worn out and scarred beyond belief......you need to use an angle grinder more often..lol

 

[Euans2]

all I have to do is think about working on the car and my hand dry up and skin falls off, the joys of having contact dermatitis

 

[carlcall]

Hahahaha

 

[Dani_B19]

Ha ha. That's after 20 minutes of scrubbing with a nail brush I'll have you lot know.

I'll take it your hands all pristine then haha.

 

[Euans2]

Thats a blast from the past lol

I wish.....my hands are that dry from fettling with stuff and being a plasterer that if I dipped them into a gallon of engine oil they would absorb at least a litre or two.

 

[Charlie Farley]

that's just the advert I was thinking of...lol

 

[carlcall]

This one maybe for Dani as his hands look really soft.....

 

[Charlie Farley]

[Dani_B19]

T***s. Haha.

My hands are covered with scars from working on cars over the years. Got a big one across my thumb where I caught it on a razor sharp edge in the luggage compartment of Mclaren P1 nose cone!

 

[joinerman]

Wimps the lot of ya.

 

[Dani_B19]

Is that really your hand? What happened?

 

[joinerman]

Oh yes it really is my hand, machine accident

Healed a bit now

 

[Dani_B19]

Gutted for you mate.

 

[joinerman]

Still work, doesn't hinder me much, ****** hurts in the cold though.

Looks very similar to an accident one of my old friends had about 30 years ago but lost bits of both his first and little finger also.....faulty failsafe on 30+ ton press....it wasn't a pretty site.

You don't use a nail brush, you bite nails down past where the grime is!!!! Fact.
