26 years of grime
 

like some of you may have gathered from my previous posts, i am rebuilding my girlfriend 1982 peugeot

i tought it ahd steel wheels, turned out there was so much crap on the wheels that they looked like steel but they are belgian weinman aluminium rims.

took me 5 hours to polish the front wheel only to bring it to a as new look!
grime was so incrusted on the aluminium that i had to use aluminium & metal de-etcher prep (aeronautical product) to have a workable ground fo the steel wool before the polishing steps!

ill take pictures tomorow of the rear and the front for comparison


and my hands are sore lol

Can't wait to see pics. Hope you won't have such sore hands after the rear.
