I DO like 3M. Got a little interest there (DRIP Fund), and they've held their own against the market for 24 years that I've watched...

But about the rag there - 'just sayin'...'

Well, I never tried a paint brush to remove tar/oil. But the 3M Adhesive Remover is great stuff that works almost instantly on specks of tar, etc, and requires very little rubbing on larger streaks. Paint friendly too!

Just as the legendary bird...the Phoenix has risen from her ashes to fly again!

New paint is all rubbed out and Clear Sealed, all her badges in place, sitting in cool morning air, rumbling sweetly, ready to kill some bugs and terrorize some deserted blacktops. It's been a long road back, but better 'n ever now!

And, a "Zaino shot", of course....
