[AT] Tractor Shop weatherproofing

[charlie hill]

LOL,  no not really.  Pipe insulation wasn't dense enough to do
what I needed and I just kind of stumbled on those things in
Wally World or somewhere and said "hey this might work" and it did.
They actually can't be seen in my application until I take the hatch
cover off.
