some outside:











The paint on this car was extremely rough, as was the fiberglass.

I used a variety of products and buffers on this car, including:

Buffers: DeWalt, Flex and DA

Products:
Meguiar's #80
Tropi-care Swirl Cutter Plus
Menzerna Final Polish II
Meguiar's #21 2.0
Meguiar's #16
Chemical Guys 5050

Ditto....like on TDC, that is way out of my league. That was one tough assignment. Incredible results.

thanks guys .. it was lots of fun ..

hopefully it will get me more work .. he drove it to a buddies wedding later on the day he picked it up, and several of those guys have made comments to me about wanting me to do their rides.. so there may be some more high dollar imports in my future..
