I finally got around to getting rid of the Lucerne Blue overspray that was very noticeable in the wheel wells, the rear arms of the sub-frame, and the leaf springs and perches. We removed the wheels/tires and set it fairly high on jack-stands and went to work scrubbing, scrapping, and cussing. The wheel wells had overspray on mud (dirt mud, not bondo), so after finding that out, a wet cloth really loosened it up and a 1" wide scrapper took got rid of most of the crud, but looked like crap once it dried, so I sprayed a light coat of 3M Undercoating (08881) to darken the inside of the wheel wells and the easily seen 'blue' areas underneath. It's not a professional job by any stretch, but it looks a whole lot better for a driver.

Swapping in the original PQ TH400 next time I see the Bird.
