    That's art, amazing to see a transformation like that. I would be nervous detailing it though because the paint on those things back then were so much different it seems than today's paint systems. Thats assuming that paint is original which good chance its not. But still you get my drift.

    Yeah, at one point they decided to leave some swirl marks in due to the nature of the paint. Either way they did a fantastic job.

    That Caddy impressed me sooo much! Those guys put out such high quality work on some very tricky cars!

    Hi, thanks for the feedback and I'mreally glad you have apreciated our work. My Caddy was totaly restored by its previous owner about 10 years ago according to the paiting specifications of the time it was built and parked in his garage ever since, till I bought it. It had many swirls marks because it was since then cleaned weekly by one employee using a dry cloth...unfortunatly he didnt know about quick details. We tried to be as smooth as possible but to aim at a reasonable result, but its rather tricky, the paint has reactions you dont see in normal cars, not easy to explain (at least in english), but in the end we were satisfied with the results.
    Thank you, once again! Cheers!
