Video tutorial

Today, we will give you some tips for restoring a Garelli Vip. First, if the chrome parts are rusty, clean them with steel wool and a suitable polishing spray. If the exhaust and engine are greasy, clean them as well.

Now move on to the most challenging and time-consuming part: sand all the bodywork parts, then disassemble them. To paint your Garelli, remember to apply two coats of primer first and let it dry. Only then should you paint with your preferred colours.

Another simple maintenance task that would make your Garelli look even "younger" is changing the mirrors.
