Cars II

I saw Cars II today and I can now appreciate Tow-Mater. He would not let anyone take out any of his dents, they represent history and experiences. I already have decided that this truck will be a "rescue" "not a restoration". The difference is about $40,000.00 and shiny paint. I now have a way to preserve the patina, I first sand the rust very lightly to get it smooth. I then clean the surface with a cleaner such as Murphy's soap and finally I give it a good coat and buff with Johnson's paste wax. Sounds crazy?
