Sorry for the poor documentation - This was a quick cut in buff for a friend of mine trading in this car. They had struck a deer with the car and had it repaired at a local body shop. I was a painter by profession for several years before jumping into the IT industry but I still remain active in the painting/detailing world after work.
The hood, front fenders and bumper cover were all repainted. About a month after getting the car back, my friend called and I had the car brought over... The clear did what I called "pinched Up". The car was cut and buffed from the body shop and looked smooth when he picked it up. After additional drying and solvent loss, The clear appears rough and with severe "die back".
Again sorry for the poor photos and lack of proper documentation on the correction.
This was a photo from my phone before
I used 1500 on a DA followed up by 3000 DA to cut the texture out of the hood. Next I used the M105/M205 on this repaint it finished down nicely.
Here is a 50/50 cut and buff vs non sanded
and the last picture after the cut and buff on the hood
Finished shot... I didn't do the detail, just the cut and buff on this one...
1500 DA
3000 DA
Rotary M105
Rotary M205
G110 M205
G110 M21
I checked progress with MS on test spot and Swirl Finder Light but neglected to get pictures.
More to come with much better pictures and documentation. I didn't plan on posting this when I did the correction.
