That looks like a hell of a lot of work :yes:

Very nice :thmbsp::thmbsp::thmbsp:

BTW, I find it good to apply a coat of wax over the surface after MAAS. No matter how much I use clean towell after applying MAAS, there always seems to be some residue left behind. The wax helps get all thats left behind. I like Diamond Luster

Thanks...
JT-3, epifanatic,visman and perchdog.
It's been a very rewarding experience.
perchdog...I agree. The gentle wipe down before pictures did reveal some residue.
Are we talking car wax?

I would be willing to bet you may have one of the nicest most thoroughly rebuilt Fisher 800C on the planet. I have to hand it to you Martin, you clearly went above and beyond the standard call of duty for these things! :thmbsp:
