  • Big Clean Horses

    This is my tractor I cleaned up this weekend. It is a 1995 Case International Magnum 7240. I do not have before picks because I wasn't thinking about posting here. My better camera is broke so I had to pull out the freebie. I will list my steps but remember I am just switching over to Meguiars and still have product to use up.

    1. Washed it twice with soap and degreaser mix.

    2. Buffed with a wool pad and 3M rubbing compound.

    3. Polished with a foam pad and 3M dark polish.

    4. Waxed twice with DC carnauba wax.

    5. Cleaned windows, interior, etc.

    Do you think a sealant would be better for this type of application or would the wax be fine. It is always stored inside and maybe gets 200 hours of use a year. Let me know what you think.

                  I did spray the sides down lightly with Armor All (Have to use it on something).

                    Looks good! That had to be alot of work and most off a ladder or hanging by your toe nails!

                    Someone mentioned dressing the tires, at the Iowa State Fair they have tons of tractors on display and they are have dressed tires, monster dressed tires. I should ask what they use.
