Thats normal, Its from the oil.

Use Simple green to clean it.

Make sure you use sand paper.

You could take some clean motor oil and a rag and just wipe off the old stuff that is on everything.

nah...it's all good. you just have to use a wire brush and like some1 said earlier, plenty of sand paper. gotta use a corse grit if you really want to get it all off tho

 

Try using some peanut butter, they worked great for my Volks as well.

 

LOL best thread ever. 1st!

ya know, for being new, you have a solid point there. It is normal, leave it. There are people on this site willing to help out....just not in the apperance/cosmetic section crowd. Try more tech focused sections of this forum.
