Re: Polish/Compound Abrasive Chart
It's like looking into the mind of a mad man... I can see it, but it makes no sense, lol.

How spooky, I was reading through some old copies of VW Audi magazine, in the August 1998 edition there is a feature on a 76 TS automatic that lives in High Wycombe, it was a girl who is a pilot in Africa, who owned it.
