Awesome!!! I found out not to long ago that there is a small little non profit air museum here in my town and when I checked it out one of the things I thought was "Joe could make these babies really shine!"

I can only imagine working on one of these is a long and hard task but so much fun and worth it in the end! Maybe if I get brave I will attempt to tackle a small plane some day

Museums are always looking for volunteers. Offer them some of your time I bet they will appreciate it.

I just started on an AT-6 TEXAN!! The aircraft is completely in pieces so a picture is impossible. .

Here is a picture from 1943 of a couple of AT-6s.

I'm curious about that, too. How many gallons of metal polish did you use on the plane?

I'd love to be able to do something like that some day.

You know I had the figures down somewhere but can't find them right now.

Aluminum polish goes along way. When we first started we were using too much polish. We have the process down really good now

Go ahead and tell everybody why don't you!

No need to fret partner, anyone can buy the polish, but no one can buy our knowledge. Anyone can buy a cow, not everyone can make beouf borginion.

We used a combination of Rolite, and Optimum metal polish.
