Bumping this thread back up... because it's a phenomenal color and you did a great job! Looks just like mine now too, haha. Would you say that this was a fairly soft paint, or no? Have you experienced that it tends to be thin on these cars? That's what I've heard from a few people.

That's a pretty solid hit! Your paintwork looks good though. Did you get the paint from eBay as well?

It's amazing how unique the look of a coating is. That gloss is just insane and unmatchable by any other type of LSP, it seems. Looks phenomenal, despite being brown :P Kidding, great work man!

First off, amazing work, that old red paint looks incredible! Second, could you provide a little more info on this 'pitting'? My '91 Miata has the same thing all over its original single stage paint. Were you able to compound them out? Are they removable or just too deep? I haven't had any...

Thanks for the feedback. I watched some videos and now understand that a steamer is a separate machine to assist in hand cleaning, while these extractors are like power shampooers with a vacuum to remove the cleaner mixture from fabric/carpet in one step. I was looking into the Bissel machine...

Hi all, does anyone have any experience using the Rug Doctor machines in cars? I was thinking about trying one since they can be rented locally for cheap. My project Miata has old cigarette odor and general nastiness that really needs to be gone, and a couple of our other cars need some help...

Wow, that color is phenomenal. Why would you want a white or silver car when you can have that? Great work on it man! The Rupes is quiet enough to use in a showroom? I really need to do something about the racket my HF DA makes, haha.

I'm also a fan of Blue Flame... IMG_5830 by add_lightness, on Flickr But that Sonic Blue is gorgeous as well!! Great work man.

Looks great! I like your taste in cars. What combo did you find gave good correction on the larger panels? I have one of the same vintage.

What did you use to take care of the spots on the inside of the trunk lid and jambs, 3" DA? Were they etched or just dirt?

Are foam pads a good combo with this stuff? I have a bottle, but have only tried it briefly by hand.

Wow, that 991 looks incredible!! The gloss on that blue is great. Congrats on working on that pair!

On the Z, what are all those dots in the after shots? Deep pits from water spots, or just dust? I've got the same sort of permanent spots all over my car and it really bugs me. They all look great though!

That last pic... gloss is incredible.

Looks phenomenal. Is it just me, or do these coatings seem to give a ridiculous level of gloss that wax/sealant can't deliver?

A Miata with a crappy 10 year old Maaco single stage repaint. It was practically a matte finish, talk about oxidation! [/url][/IMG] [/url][/IMG] [/url][/IMG]
