On my Z, the insides of the inner fenders had a lot of undercoat. I stripped them using a course wire wheel on a 4.5 inch angle grinder. Once the wires start to bend a bit, flip it around but be VERY CAREFUL, as it will really bite for the first few minutes, until they start bending the other direction. Then turn it around again. Lather rinse repeat, or something like that. Sure tears that old dried up undercoat out in a hurry.

I will gently try some cleaning techniques.

Ordered a set of T3 headlights, headed to Dan V for NOCC pick up.

Ordered Fusick plastic/rubber/felt “seals” for around the rad.

Ordered Inline Tube inner fender splash guards..... do they come with staples? They don’t sell them.... where do I get them?

Plus my powdercoating is done so I am racing over to get it before skateboard shopping with the lad :-)

PS: my “To Purchase” list is getting smaller, I need to introduce the “To Sell” list very shortly.

A few people have said to make them from 0.041 SS wire or used HD paper clips to make them.
