Before & after waxoyl body off
Been doing a repair and while apart the chassis was looking a bit tatty in places so a good TFR dosing and jet wash allowed to dry then a coat of black waxoyl for the chassis and the underside of the body was also wire brushed off and treated with clear wax what do you think
That was yesterday car is up and running today
