1968 Corvette

[LuxuryMobile]

Havent been posting much here as I have been super busy and havent bothered with taking pictures of details.

This 1968 Corvette was scheduled for a wash/wax. After seeing how dull the paint looked there was no way I could JUST wax this car. Called the owner and told him it would need more than a wax job. He was on a budget so we decided to worry less about small scratches and more about restoring gloss.

Didn't take a ton of pictures but enough for you to get the idea of the improvements.

Decided to give the entire car a polish using Meg #205 and the Flex DA and Griots DA. This brought the color back to life and removed some imperfections. After this was done, Collinite 845 was used to keep the paint protected.

Here are some before pictures. As you can tell, this Corvette’s paint was being robbed of the depth and clarity it deserved.

A couple 50/50 shots to show the impact of the polishing…

After all the paintwork was done, I pulled it outside for some pictures. Overall the Corvette had a nice turn around and the paint looks great.

Thanks for looking

Great work for sure, can't believe that car has cherry bombs on it and when it was painted, why not fill in the holes from the luggage rack, oh well, you did you job and did it well!
