Haha, that's actually mine, in all her dirty glory.

I put a seal on her last night and will wax her tonight when I get home from work. Hopefully this weekend the sun will be out to take a few good shots of the car.. I don't have any since I've owned it.

Silver C6 z06 > Black C6 z06

haha...just kidding

Nice job Turkey!

Turkey, do you post on corvette forum?

07 Z, yes I do, under the same name. I was so close to getting a silver one, then it was a Cyber Grey, but I couldn't get away from black. With that said I am never buying another black car. It spends as much time getting cleaned as I drive it!

I knew your name sounded familiar.

I had a black C6 prior to the Z. Black is extremely nice, but since I drive my Z a lot, there's no way I wanted another black car.

amazing job. how many hours on polish?

[Big Turkey]

07Z, silver is a beautiful color it really shows the body curves of that car and I love it. Actually I just love it period haha.

pushtiulk, thank you for the compliments and overall working time took me about 7-8 hours. It was a period over 3 days, I was doing it at night and it was in the high 30s, low 40s here when I was doing it and I was having hell trying to break down the polish. Since the polish would not fully turn transparent as it would during a nice day, I made a test spot and counted my passes, then timed them and I gave each one about 3-6min at full speed on my PCXP depending on the severity of the correction. It seemed to work pretty well but I had to redo small areas because it left some micromarring. I also cut the amount of polish I put on the pad from a quarter size to about a nickel or else I had to clean my pad twice per panel.

I also spent about an hour just playing with different pad/polish combos trying to figure out what the clear would take.. I had read that the Camaro's clear was hard like the Vette. I'd say from personal experience that it's slightly softer. I pretty much have to use meg's 105's abrasive level with an orange pad if I want to get anything done.

I am doing 2 C6Z06's this weekend for a customer of mine, one's blue and the other is black, I will try to get some more pics up here.

One day when I get free time I'll actually sit down and jewel up my car and take some good pics.

You must have read the review incorrectly or someone posted it incorrectly; as Souveran Paste wax is known for being OUTSTANDING on black paint. Another thing that is outstanding on black paint is to use Menzerna PO85rd (85rd) as your final finishing polish. Use it with a blue LC CCS pad after your done polishing with your WG TSR/FG or m105/m205. Use it when you have the finish nearly perfect and don't think it can get any better. This will (jewel the paint) or AMP up the shine and sweeten the finish

By the way great work...Car looks sweet

I ordered the 85rd and it's on backorder!
