Buick Gran Sport driver resto

[tech69]

we did this car a while back but they since got into a wreck on the left side so I had to re do the quarter panel and while at it I melted out the lead seams plug welded the seams. I did everything on this car but paint it. Solid red is just as hard as solid black.

The light helps to find rogue scratches and swirls in the compound stage.





After polish. I'm pretty happy with the result. This car was only primed once so it wasn't as straight as I like but when I prepped it for paint I hard blocked the whole car and then hard blocked it after it was painted and now it looks like it originally got primed twice. That clear coat was a pretty expensive primer.

also bodyworked these fenders after they were epoxied. I did the metal work, filler work, primed them blocked them, and polished them. They are lazer straight now. The other fenders weren't the exact year so they got replaced. Nothing is wrong with them damage wise-DOH!







A LOT of work to remove all the scratches and swirls There are a few swirls there but the swirls are true and not hiding under wax or anything. The clear is still breathing solvents and wax will cause it to die back and dull. No cheating.
