hi dan welcome to the forum. One of the best decisions you have made in that you want a 190E. Really like your signature pic, gives me inspiration as i think the wheels are the same as mine I should really pull my finger out and get my car washed. Anyhow welcome and feel free to ask ?'sss |

Hello and welcome aboard, however, the weather there is very humid, and could also be a rust-contributing factor

Hallo and welcome. Rust is probably less of a problem than the abrasive damage caused to the paint finish over 20 years by wind blown sand. I know one of our members has fairly recent experience of what the sand can do. I expect he will be along in due course with some advice. Enjoy the forum Edited by aemt, Mon Dec 13, 2010 11:10 pm.
