    Spilled oil in the trunk, suggestions?

    Coming into work last week, a friend of mine spilled a good 3/4 of a Gallon of Mobil 1 in the trunk of his G35. It was completely soaked through and puddled in the spare tire well. I don't even know where to start. I was thinking just degreaser and pressure washer, but doubt that will touch...

    74 Porsche 911 2 day correction

    This is my first thread for displaying work, so feel free to comment on pictures/views/angles I should have taken. For starters, this Porsche is a 24/7 outdoor car surrounded by trees. I started out with a simple wash to remove the dirt with Megs Gold Class. In the sunlight it looked "ok"...
