Has anyone over the pond cleaned the underside of their contours ? I'm currently preparing my Mondeo for a concours competion and have all the subframe etc being powder coated.
Just wanted to see if anyone had any photos of clean examples to gets some ideas ????

I never took any after photos but when I went to swap my rear suspension, it ended up taking me over a month to complete because I found myself touching up every miniscual rust spot on the underbody.

Well this is all I've done so far. I'm putting all the newly painted subframe, trailing arms, wishbones and knuckles on this weekend. Then its all new nuts and bolts and a new fuel tank protective cover.
