C63 Back Boxes

[J LAD]

They polish up pretty well lads! (sorry not the best of pics).
Simply insert a rotary wire wheel into your drill and carefully remove all the surface crud.
Then using an old rubber hook n loop backing plate, an old 4 inch coarse polishing pad + a coarse polish, buff to a high finish.
It would have been easier via a garage pit and simpler to remove the back boxes but the exhaust clamp looked too rusted to remove, so this will be another day when time permits.

I think I like it and I think I like you can even be bothered to do it.
I might have to try it. Have you protected them after? Alloy wheel seal?

Do you do this to save wear on your tyres??

Nothing on them yet for protection. I thought about high temp clear lacquer, but may just use a product called Rejex, this works well on chrome / Stainless parts that dont get too hot.
I know you have to get on your knees to see them but they sure look good.
Its always nice to know that your undercarraige is clean!!!!!!!

Hmmmm.... Your enthusiasm pleases me...

The cars in at Sytners of Sheffield soon to have a few paint issues addressed, this includes the underneath of the rear valence just behind the rear wheels, thats why I havnt removed the tar spots, but you are right its no excuse, they should have been removed!
