Nice write-up. Great job on the vette!
I have a 2002 myself, the clearcoat is tough!
Black is such a tough color, it was in rough shape, again Great job making it sparkle again.

Car looks great!
I have an '03 EB Z06 and the OEM paint is definitely hard! I had to do 2 to 3 passes with MF pad/compound and 15mm DA on most sections to get the paint where it was acceptable.

Maintenance wash on the corvette. It has spent this entire time in my brothers garage as my uncle is still not done building his.
Mixed up some McKee's 37 N-914 as a waterless wash which is 1:128. Followed that up with a 1:20 QD mix of ech2o.
For those that ask the coating has no contamination as it's been in the garage since August of 2016. I told my brother to drive it to stretch it's legs out once in awhile. It will be going home soon.
