Third Gen Nova Detail One Step

[coles_paint_correction]

Here is a third gen nova i did a few months back and forgot to post.

Car came to me pretty swirled and needed a nice correction, customer only wanted to let me do a one step which was fine by me.
I loved the color on this one with the wheel setup, it also had a 383 motor underneath with a built 9 inch rear end and a few other goodies.
He also let me drive it and it was fun to drive but man was it hot with no ac lol. These cars just are like american muscle mid 70's lol to me.
Process:
2 bucket method with megs hyper wash
Megs foam dressing
G21/orange pad/correcting cream/collnite 845
invisible glass stoners/mf towels.

Here are some photos of the process and before and afters, sorry for the lack of befores/afters as this was awhile back but thought you guys still might enjoy.
In the future cars i do, it will be better photos/befores/afters/etc.

Before as it arrived:

Here are a few before and afters i think i moved the camera by mistake in some angles but you get the idea:

The green really started to pop. Wish i would've gotten more pictures but was pressed for time as i got this one done at night one day sitting.

Yup, the best part is when people see their car and wonder if it really is still the one they dropped off.

Ya it is! Even though this customer didn't really have too much reaction.

Thx Mike! I wanted you too see it.

Nice work. I like that car. I'll bet he's embarrassed a few people with that car, unless the sound gives away what it really is...

Thanks dave, i bet he has too, it's fun being underestimated sometimes, it happens sometimes when i drive my little s10.

Looks pretty darn awesome, do you know if that was single stage or clear-coated?

Thanks paul, yeah it was clear-coated, painted about six or seven years ago he said.
