Someone said that Easy Off Heavy Duty Oven Cleaner would work? Tom |
I wouldnt use oven cleaner. . |
I agree.... Although I won't hazard a guess about the correct way to go about it without looking at it.
My advise would be to go easy though and take your time with the gentlest of products..... no hurry, she's been there a long time as is and will be just fine for a long time to come !
This is the the type of car I would force myself to be patient enough to wait for next time !
Good luck mahn.....  |
Thank you Sir! Yes, I'm going with that Simple Green and a soft towel, also that and a green pad to ease off that brush paint and finish it off with that Zymol wax. 
I have nothing but time when it comes to the car, it will be an ongoing running driving preservation. 
Tom

That semaphore car looks interesting, you restoring it? Or is it a parts car? I need (one) semaphore for my car now.

Parked in this barn in 1972, due to the fact that he hit a 67 Plymouth drunk driving. It just scratched the Plymouth, but the owner was so scared of getting in trouble it got parked and did not see light till 2010.
One door OPEN
Digging the door out
the drinking a driving damage (can you see it)
On the trailer Home.
It is a work in progress, pan section are first on the ajenda.
