I cleanded up this car for a friend of mine.
It was a big job, he has 4 kids, small driveway, and is very busy, so his paint was hammered.
he also drives 50 miles to work a day.
Once i took a close look at it I wasn't sure If I wanted to do all that work.
But I did....
washed and clayed it, because it was sooo dirty, tar, bugs, etc.
the front I didn't do much to since 25% of the paint is chipped off.
there's swirl, then there's spagetti!
I didn't take a ton of pics, but these are some bad spots, swirl all over the car, scuffs, scratches etc.
So, full 5 stage polish
2 passes with SSR3 on the whole car.
here's 2 passes on the deck.
Here's the whole thing roughed up on course polish.
I looks kinda dull, but that's normal.
So, 2 passes with SSR3 - course
2 passes with SSR2.5
2 passes with SSR2 - meduim abrasive
2 passes with SSR1 - fine
2 passes with PB ultra fine
Final with EX sealer/wax.
If it was my car, I would have started all over, but for him it's good.
It was getting dark, so you can't see that there 's some swirl, and a bunch of the scratches are sitll visible, but it's
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAy better than it was.
Hes happy with it,
I spread it over the weekend, took me 10 hours.
Polished to SSR1
