This is a forum member Fasn8n slammed C5 Z06 corvette.

Bart stopped by last week, while I was on a job site to take a look at his vette.
It was in very good shape. It had the normal swirl/spiderwebbing, and what I thought to have a slight haze to it. So it needed just a little touch up. So I took out the sand paper, just kidding.
Well the deck lid had a nasty bird bomb etching on it. And I did sand it just a little with 1500 grit. It is still there, though not as noticeably.

Gave it a quick DP 4-in-1 wash. Dried with cobra guzzler. Taped off back window trim, and door trim. And also around the rear brake inlets.

I went through two low profile org pads with the pc. I spread the product at speed 3, then worked it in at speed 6.
I went with 3m extra cut/op on the pad at the same time. Then went back over with a white polishing pad with op.
I talked with Bart, and he needed durability and wanted some deep depth for the paint.
So I went with Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant. Removed with a cobra deluxe jr. I think he will be getting a bottle from AG now.

Ed, Looks great (except for the brown landscape and bare trees).

Nice and wet Ed. Are you topping the sealant with anything? Souveran would look awesome.

Ed .... beautiful as always. That puppy is slammed, would not wanna hit a pothole with that one at speed. OUCH !

 

[FASN8N]

Ed,
Thanks again for the great job! The car looks like a mirror and is super slick

Gary,

The watering ban is not helping any of the landscaping in GA that is for sure. I am looking forward to havinging the ban lifted ASAP!

Killerwheels,

The car is low, but everyday driving, potholes, etc are not a problem. You just have to know how to drive a lowered car

Thanks for the compliments. It is amazing what tint, coilovers, and a fresh detail can do for a car
