Tim,
Relax. All it takes is a spray bottle of toilet bowl cleaner and a garden hose. Bet you could have the same results in 15 minutes or so.

I met Andreas at Parade and saw his car while he was waiting for it to be judged........my car stayed in the (dark) hotel parking garage until I left to come home.

Toilet bowl cleaner? Does it matter what flavor? I want my wheelwells to look like that (for a day).

PS - got the plastic triangles you sent, thanks very much! They look brand new. I am not surprised.

I noticed that too.

Andreas, you need to get some wire brushes shaped like a pipe cleaner to address the holes in the rotor. Also, that retaining screw is an atrocity. Once I noticed that, I didn't even see the car behind it.
