Show Your Patina

I have other crests not shown that have polish residue. Heard you have restored crests. What would carefully remove polish residue in your experience?

Hi Steve

Hope you and the car are well.

It takes ages especially on the dimples which I clean up one at a time. I use dental tools and Jizzer. Once cleaned up I seal with Gibbs.

Everything is tickety-boo thanks Mike. Appreciate the advice. Is that why some folks think you are a dentist?

No, that’s a whole different story. I’ll tell you if/when we meet up.

I just bumped onto this thread while i tried to do a search for "steering wheel". Read patina and could not resist tom come and check it out.
As some of you already know, i have a weakness for old momo steering wheels. May not be all of you guys' cup of tea but i selected a few pics that i believe fit into the 'patina' game. Here goes:

Robi: those certainly pass muster on the word ‘patina’ - some amazing wheels!

Thanks Stephen. I have a weakness for all old momo's but nothing that tells a story like some good amount of patina!
