The sweet husband scrubbing the aluminum window we hunted down through Craigslist. I have to say, Craigslist is one of my favorite sites. We've sold and purchased so many things. We were up vacationing near Lima, Ohio and decided to stop by a gentleman's house who salvaged old trailers. After weeks of searching, we found what we needed - 60's era Hehr aluminum windows with screens, glass intact. These babies are not made anymore, and can cost upwards of $200 a piece. This window was $15. We bought 3 windows. We still will have to replace some glass at a local glass shop - but it's the frames that are the treasures!!
My turn!!
You can't see it very well, but the right side of the aluminum window was scrubbed with the SOS pads - The aluminum gets supershiny. DH hit all of the moving parts with WD40. All of the windows are re-installed using stainless steel screws and the miraculous butyl tape, which (fingers-crossed) renders them waterproof.
My turn!!
