A bit more progress, my paint isn't in such good shape as Tony's, I think they may have scuffed it up a bit prior to hand painting it 6 times !!

Klaus,

Yep, I'd been using it but not getting the results. You need to get the bus warm to make it really work well so push it out into the sun , leave it to warm and then away you go.

Tried Mr Muscle but thats nowhere near as good ..Easy off is the way to go.

I've been using 0000 wire wool and glass paper when I get down to the blue.

Getting there mate, getting there.
