Just a guess, but you may have accidentally sprayed the backs of the wheels or the wheel treads themselves. Many diesels have a pick-up contact that rubs the backs of the wheels, so any overspray may partialy insulate the contact. I've done this more times than I can count. Check carefully for any overspray, then clean it off with thinner, 91% isopropyl alcohol or Goo-Gone. You may have to take the trucks apart to get everything, but it shouldn't be too hard to get your GP-38 back on the roster. When I spray trucks, I'll make a suitable mask from a slip of paper to control overspray, but I still have to clean wheel treads by hand. <br /> <br />smyers
