Some of you may remember the black "69" GTO I did back during the winter, it may have been a year ago.
This is the same owner, but this time we are all Bowtie and white!

Hard to pick up the defects, but they are there.

The process would be to do a thorough decontamination on the vehicle to prepare the car for a single stage polish that would gain a great deal of gloss and get rid of some of the lighter scratches.
Washed with Auto Finesse Avalanche snow foam
While that dwells, I like to do the wheels and tires.
Chemical Guys citrus wash in the bucket.
P21S TAW in the spray bottle.
Sonax Full effect





Some interior shots. I love the color combo.





Inside gas door. The great thing about old cars is that with a few simple tools, you can pretty much take the thing apart.











Coming together nicely































The outside was corrected with HD Adapt, and the Green Rupes pad on the FLEX3401. I then applied Auto Finesse Tripple as a pre-wax treatment. This adds more gloss and shine after correction and is so easy to use.
I then hand applied the Swissvax Concorso
The bed was treated with Klasse AIO and then sealed with Klasse Sealant. All interior painted surfaces were treated with Klasse AIO.
The interior vinyl was cleaned with 1Z Einzett Cockpitt premium and then protected with 303 Aerospace.
Carpets were also cleaned and steamed.
The tires were treated with 303, and the beauty rings were polished with M100 on a light foam applicator (If you haven't tried that, you need to.)

Hope you enjoy the pics. The owner is dropping off a light yellow Chevelle convertible next week before he goes on vacation.

Agreed, out of all the vehicles he has so far, this is the one I would want more than others.
