A fellow customer who I did a audio system for contacted me about getting his corvette winterized and cleaned up. We decided to just do the exterior and worry about getting a full 2 stage + interior done in the spring. This was my first time working with corvette clear and even with MF pads as well as an assortment of polishes to work with it was no easy task. I ended up switching between M101 and FG400 in the process, I added a stage 2 correction to the hood as it became very finicky too work with to get a proper correction with a one stage.

Really nice work, and especially since you did it all outside. I agree though, that exhaust looks like it's from a sports bike.
Yea same exact thing I thought great work on the car but that exhaust is horrific!! And wow I was planning on getting the sidekick to help with my leaky mirrors and jams didn't realize how tiny it was. Does it work well?
Beautiful job with the Flex3401 VRG ! The paint is so much better and very clear ! Im also of the opinion that the exhaust here is not really designed to go with the lines or character of this car.. The guys at Bowling Green designed the best looking exhaust for all the Corvettes years ago and that "look" they came up with seems to fit the car better... Thanks again for the awesome work, write up and pics ! Dan F
the sidekick doesn't replace a full size master blaster of leaf blower however, it does do a great job of getting water out of the cracks during drying. Yes, doing it in the sub is a pain I will be investing in a canopy very soon
