    Feeling a bit tired so I`ll skip writing the process this time. It was in decent condition but had a lot of bad parts..



    Before









    Caked on..





    After washing, close up of the stuff that eventually bowed down to me.





    Trim was fading in places





    Engine Before





    Engine After





    Finished

    Guys, let`s give him a break! He was probably exhausted after restoring the Exploder. How did you manage to finally get the wheels clean?
    Hoping the weather gets warmer again

    Diluted degreaser + A LOT of scrubbing. It left some very light scratches in some places but a quick polishing made it all nice again.
