Afternoon, gentlemen!
(Are there any ladies on the forum yet...???)
Chris in Plymouth here, gazing out of the window at my new 'silver' R4.
Richard, I think you said that it must look like a 'modern car' in that colour!! Well, when I say 'silver', I really mean a very faded, worn, tired kind of grey which used to be silver a few moons ago!!!!!
So, if anyone has any good advice about how to restore paintwork to its former glory, I'll get cracking on it. There is the issue of some small rusty areas on the bodywork, particularly the bonnet where a surfer apparantly sat on it a few years back!! I've sanded these rusty bits and painted wax-oyl on them to keep the rain out - will I have to sort these bits out before I can do a more general paintwork restoration????
Help me - I want that car gleaming again!!!
Chris
