then i thought while ive got it apart i'd make a start polishing my inlet trumpets...
.... it proved to be a lot more hard work than i anticipated. i really need to invest in some more power tools for doing this![Wall](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/wall.gif)

I'm at this point as well... Mine had an aditional layer of black underseal on which I got off with a spray bottle of petrol and about 15 hours labour lol
My plan was to stone chip then paint over that

When you say cleaned back and prepped, do you mean strip the original underseal off too?
