egg80 Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 as the title says as winter is nearly here we all start to prep for winter due to all the weather types we get we need to water proof how do you do yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt_green84 Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Got mine half way done, receiver out and washed out with WD40 to get all the sand out, put everything back inside a condom, just got to get a few cableties to seal it all up. As an aside, and I know this isn't a great subject, will condom lube do any damage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
