that looks just awesome


How did you cleaned the underside?
as I'm doing a resto my self and at the moment I'm scrathing the crap of but that is just horibble to do.

seeing your pictures there must be a easier way.
heating up will make the progress faster but then there is still the yellow stuff. what is also in the wheelarches. what is the best way to remove this?

this is a pic of the underside of my car at the moment


hope you can help me
