Nice work! Really like the color.

I see you performed your test spots. Which polish combo did you use over the entire vehicle?

Thanks for taking the time to share.

Nice work. As much as we all love classic, luxury, or sports cars, I love when people show a great makeover of an average daily driver.

Good combination for removing moderate defects.

Did you perform a finer polishing session with a finer polish such as Menzerna SF3500 and perhaps a white polishing or black finishing pad prior to your LSP?
