Disgusted by what I saw, I whipped out my supplies and got busy. It's just my daily beater but dirt, filth, and down right sloppiness is not how I like to roll. The previous owner probably didnt give a two about this car! which bites.
6 terry cloth towels
2 wire brushes ( toothbrush sized)
1 bottle industrial degreaser
1 can of factory brake cleaner
Infinte amount of elbow grease
so 1 tetanus shot & a few hours later, I was satisfied w/ the results, which I will improve over the next few days god willing.
