Here's the before condition.


Note all swirl shots were taking using the new Speed Master Swirl Finder Light.

Dirt staining

The paint on this car has dirt staining that has impacted ONTO and INTO the paint.

This picture taken after a waterless wash and after claying the paint.

Looks like it sat outside under a leaky tarp and got wind-whipped , rubbed, and dust abrated for a few months. I don't understand why own something like that and not take care of it.

Could very well be.

I don't understand why own something like that and not take care of it.

So many cars like this - look like this.


As the saying goes,

Most people don't know the difference between a squirrel and a swirl



For clarification...

This is a Squirrel

These are Swirls

The other issue is, most people don't know how to work on their car's paint, (any type of car), and the people that own these types of cars while they don't know how to work on their car's paint they also don't trust anyone else to work on their car's paint.

Generally speaking, things don't get better with time. What's the opposite of get better?


And this is why for so long, when any of us go to a car show, while the cars maybe cool, most of them look like dog doo.


The good news is - keeps me busy. :dblthumb2:

Can’t wait to see the mystery product and what it does to this Cinderella. I have my own secret guess what it might be.

 

[axel06]

there will be a major transformation, will be absolutely stunning :buffing: :dblthumb2:

I have my own secret guess what it might be.

I would have guessed the new UDOS polisher if he hadn't already done the big review on the pre-production model. Then again it might be the official release of the polisher.

Nothing to do with the UDOS

I type real careful, I'm a veteran of the NXT vs Zaino Wax Wars.

From that experience I learned to pick and choose each and every word I use purposefully and specifically for all my typing, be it on this forum or an e-mail.


The car looks nothing like the pictures at this point and it's looking good.


:cheers:

My guess: it’s a ceramic AIO. Which would be exciting because not too many exist, and none from PBMG (BF coating primer with no abrasives is the closest).

My guess: it’s a ceramic AIO.

Good guess but "no".

I have some great before and after pictures but being Sunday, my wife will kill me if I hang out on the computer too much more.

It's vital to push away from the computer at some point each week. I have a time before running some errands so I've popped in ion the forum to answer a few questions.

Tomorrow I'll finish this project first thing in the morning and then share.

Good stuff. Impressed.

Here’s a few pictures that shows how neglected this paint was...
