OMG!! Girlfiend had a dirty rack!!!!
For a car with only 11,500 miles, Girlfriends front end was surprisingly dirty.
First thing Wifey said was... You've Lost Your Mind! And then... You've never done that to my car!!!  Before:  After:    TomC "Crabs"

Re: OMG!! Girlfiend had a dirty rack!!!!
Thanks for the inspiration...I saw the need to do mine this afternoon after changing out my radiator. It's amazing how easy those aluminum parts clean up...I've done it on my '85.

Re: OMG!! Girlfiend had a dirty rack!!!!
Nice!
 the only rub is that if you drive her, it gets dirty real quick....one cruise in the wet and you're back to zero...

I used ZEP Professional Strength Stainless Steel cleaner, an assortment of small brushes, 00 steel wool & paper towels. I bought the ZEP at my local Home Depot. It works great on my barbecue, so I figured I'd give it a try on the car and it really worked well. TomC "Crabs"
