Before: this car was in pretty bad condition... but i had no clue what i was in store for until after the wash........... scrubbing ARO on the top after washing and clay so at this point, i am in complete astonishment of how bad of a paint job this car had!!! it looke like it barely got wetsanded and buffed after leaving the body shop!!! and i had yet to even put the light to it! honestly i was afraid of what i would see! so i took a break and did the interior... my camera died after this pic... so i charged it while i did the rest, but forgot to take pictures after... now... onto the halogens..... before/ after of the trunklid. after 1 pass with menzerna Power Gloss. look at the difference in the reflection! like the title says!!! trunklid after 2 passes of PG now for a 50/50 of the hood. after 1 pass 2 passes reflection before/after of the hood front fender driver's door not even sanded!!!!!!!!!!! trunk lid Finished! i finished that day at 1:15AM i went back the next day to finish up the interior, do a FK# 425 wipe and black WOW. but i forgot my camera. i hope you guys enjoyed seeing what a little elbow grease and some polish can do when it comes to restoring REFLECTIONS
It looks just beautiful. You are the man. :worship2: Did you have to wet sand the drivers door or no? You said you finished at 1:15AM what were your total hours for detailing this beast. :worship2:
Wow, that looks fantastic. One thing though, I think you missed the deadline. I did last month even though nobody else applied. Just re-post it for September.
Yes, like richy said all entries must be entered before months end, so this entry is late for August but if you'd like I can simply change the tittle from August to September, just say the word and I'll make the change eace:
Really a fantastic job on this car. Sure the owner was relieved to see the car brought back to life. I can sometimes never understand how guys can buy expensive cars and let them get like this. Is the owner a Fireman btw?
