Bentley Mulsanne Le Mans

"bent out of shape" means "excited". Poor choice of words on my part. Pictures are coming soon.

Well, where I'm from, "Bent out of shape" is synonymous with "ticked off". Like, "He's all bent out of shape over the post office losing his mail", which is why I was confused! I've never heard it used in a positive connotation.

Gotcha!
 
Here are a few "teasers" of before/during/after. I will take full photos tonight assuming it is not raining. Then we'll see what four steps and 3 coats of RaceGlaze Signature Black Label looks like.

Point of reference: basically the whole car was like this or worse.

Sadly, these very deep chips are not repairable.

3 steps on this panel. Not bad.

Went a little too aggressive on this one step test panel.

4 steps on this panel. That's much better!

This is the power of Rupes Zephyr. Once with blue MF pad and once with yellow foam pad. Wicked for just two steps.

Your pictures not only shows beautiful images, but also offers great insights regarding product use and being (or not) to aggressive. That picture says a thousand words.

You're achieving stellar results, my friend, keep going.

Kind Regards.

It took a little experimenting to find out what worked best on this paint. It really is lovely paint, I would rate it about 6.5/10 in hardness.
 
Nice Car Nice color & I bet a nice job when it was finished, 62 hours of work and I thought 20 on mine was a killer.:eek:
Can't wait to see the Wax on this as I was thinking of buying the RG 55 for my car same-ish color.;)
