<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Neal Andres, post: 4142852, member: 20537&quot;]First let me say, that the picker that listed it on Ebay and sold it to me, was wise not to be the one to wash it. I was buying a lottery ticket in a way. I was HOPING and betting that it would clean up. First you begin gently with soap and water. You want any abrasive dirt removed first literally with a hose. I then sent this car to a restoration guy and had him completely disassemble the car. He used an automotive cleaning compound to really break through the grime. Even very fine steel wool is used. Then alot of buffing. Pedal car cars initially used lacquer paint on a thin gauge metal but by the early thirties the switch to enamel paints were made.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
