Internet Camaro Experts,
During the disassembly phase of a restoration, how to you return that factory new sparkle to dirty old parts? Most restoration manuals I've seen sorta skip over the disassembly phase, and it seems to me that's when parts ought to be cleaned and cataloged as opppsed to storing them dirty and getting around to it later.
1) What's in your arsenal of cleaners and solvents?
2) Are there certain cleaners that work better than others for different tasks (e.g., cleaning rust/grease/oil/carbon deposits, etc.)?
3) Do you have a workstation in your garage for cleaning parts as they come off the car? What does it look like?
4) What parts do you paint or powder coat, and what parts do you just give a good scrub and call it good?
Thanks!
