Now, onto some time in the Trim Triage. Holy wrecked pillars!
I think these weren't stock painted black, as up close, you can see some blue coming through. The black paint was contaminated with oxidation among other things so the first plan of attack was to grab the
Adam's All Purpose Cleaner with Foaming Sprayer, and an
Adam's Edgeless Utility Towel.
Before
Weapons of Decon Destruction
Look at That Funk!
With the trim being "bare", it was apparent I needed to get out the
Adam's Revive Hand Polish and a
Blue Hex Grip Applicator and try to level that out before dressing it with
Adam's SVRT. I know this was going to work as I had great success with this method on an old Porsche 911 last summer.
Ready to Dress.
POW!
I spent more time getting old wax and polish off other trim pieces with the above method, then dressed them with
Adam's In and Out Spray. (Some trim responds better to
InO than
SVRT, so that's why in this case.)
Anyone ready to see actual polish pictures yet? ME TOO. But first...
