It was step work, first i had to clean the surface with wather to get away dirt and sand deposits, than i started with grinding paste 622 by a grinder with lower RPM.

Can you tell us what Grinding Paste 622 is? I can't find any info about it. From Meguiars?

Thanks and looking good!

The paste was 3M, it was available in 3 differents stage of abrasion, 622 think was the most abrasive. I found it in a car colour shop, But i think 3M products are available on line around the web. Had used a whool disc and a very low RPM grinder specific for car shining works.

think i'm been a bit thick, you are running heat exchangers, but it seems the oil cooler/fan will interfere with the hose!
