It was pretty dirty, The paint was pretty ruff, Had no reflection in the paint. Cal and i did a 3 step on it. We are both happy with the way it turned out. With both of us working our asses off it took about 6 hours to complete. We ended up ruining to wool pads, a foam pad and 100 grams of clay. So on to the pics.
The car as we got it.
Mirrors were not looking so well.
No clarity to the paint at all.
A sun shot.
Nice new clay.
After the hood only
All taped up.
