Default Wax Job

Marvin Huey recommended Meguiar' s Fine Cut on gun stocks, followed by their Meguiar's Cleaner/Wax. Here is an original finish gun, called a wallhanger by some, with that done to it. Before and after pictures. Took off a little dirt, helped the old car some also. The car is Light ivory, and has a tinge of yellowish cream in it, which washed out in the photo.

Not very. A light hand was all. Plenty of quantity so that the cloth didn't get dry.

I took the car to the car wash first, but not the gun.

A little off subject, but noticed the woodie in the background. Tried to figure it out (Ford, Merc???) but the wheels are throwing me. What's the story. Looks pristine whatever it is.

Bruce; The gun is beautiful, and just what is the little white car?
