The laser cleaning is very impressive. I’ve done ice blasting on an old Porsche engine and it did a very effective job of taking away the years of crud but was more time consuming than the video would suggest (obviously speeded up a bit).

Very impressive. Any time I've looked under an RRC, its just been rust I've seen.

If I spent that time detailing the paintwork on the L405, it'd look nice for about 5 mins, my wife would take to her work, and it'd come back covered in bird shi...

7:10 mins I like the template for the lettering, good idea.

Yeah I have to say the result all overall is very impressive. No doubt cost a tidy sum.

at £12k (or even £170!) I'll still to the degreaser and a shi*ty rag.
