I did a wax job on the Cat today to get some shine to whats left of the black paint.That Zymol wax is some great stuff,anywaywhen I was doing the chrome I got to the "bottle cap" pillar emblems.There was years of old wax,dirt ect in the grooves.thinking I took the trusty dremel and cut a Q-tip in half th dremel took it great they cleaned up in 2 minutes! I had to share it.It sure beats the toothpick peice of rag gig. Dan

BTW Ray Harwood does a fantastic job restoring the emblems. My friend Becci has 'em on her Cat. Check 'em out. He also does the gas door emblem.

those are great

I have seen some of his work.When I was cleaning them they were on the car.It is surprising though those are the only emblems that were left on the car when I got it from the PO.And they are in great condition. Dan

Kind of makes you wonder how much those nose hair trimmers hurt.
