I brought my detail stuff with me and worked on Mike's WB4 Sat. Robert had started on the roof when he came through for WagonFest, so I finished up!

Thought I would share some shiny pics Smile

Chris

Here are a couple of 'before shots'

Then I had my trusty assistant wash down the wagon after the buffing/polishing/waxing process....lol He looks very intense.

Thanks for posting Chris! And thanks again for all the work! I just downloaded my pics last night and will post a few for ya. Chris, did you get any before pictures of the tailgate?

This is now the second wagon Chris has cleaned up for me. I'm still amazed at the difference!

And Lorne, yes, this is a keeper. This wagon has all options (other than the block heater), plus WB4 and Leather delete.

Chris also helped me remove that upper chrome trim on the front bumper. Once I pick up some new stuff, I'll post pics of that too.

No...I was too worried about getting it done to take a before pic. I was ready for Custard!! lol!
The pics of other scratches justs didn't come out well enough to post since my Macro setting is busted on my camera Sad

WB4s are just so rewarding to work on (as Robert knows!)

Oh...and I have that block heater your wagon is missing Wink Trade ya your posi rear for it!

GREAT job Chris!!!

Yes, I DO know how the MAB WB4 cleans up Why I LOVE WB4s.... Icon_biggrin Why I LOVE WB4s.... Icon_biggrin Why I LOVE WB4s.... Icon_biggrin


Chris, I am planning (tentative at this point in time) to arrive at WF10 on Thurs, detail on Friday, then enjoy the fest on Sat. Mike has said that he plans to be there a day early also. Care to join up and help with the detailing?

As for "parts for polish", I am still enjoying the intake manifold......... speaking of which, how many miles were on those injectors Bill?

Uhm, I forget which car that came off of. I'm gonna say at least 130K, to be safe. Smile

LOL!! Razz I like my engines all wrapped up. No mess when moving!

I was carefully buffing that little ledge under the license plate in that pic. Looks like I am trying to buff the tailgate with the wrong part of the pad. Rolling Eyes

I didn't know you were taking pics...gotta watch out.

Lol Pat...

Robert, this is what I use...

The Milwaukee is what I use for heavy buffing (after I wet sand or to remove bad scratches) Note I own the model that has a max RPM of 1750. That is juust enough for me.

The Porter Cable DA is for polishing and waxing. Love it!
