My car is pretty good condition '74, I don't think the foamy has ever been out before. When I was taking it out I thought for sure I was going to break it, almost like it was under suction. Like I said in the title it has a waxy, gooey, rust proofing. cosmoline like stuff sticking it in. Almost honey like, no smell to it. Is this factory or is this aftermarket rust proofing? |
