Review and How-To: Gyeon Compound, Polish and Primer - 1932 Ford Roadster detailed by Mike Phillips (https://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/product-reviews-by-mike-phillips/109328-review-how-gyeon-compound-polish-primer-1932-ford-roadster-detailed-mike-phillips.html)



Some reviews are work, (it's part of my job), and then some reviews are fun, (it's part of my job). This review is going to be fun.


This is my buddy Rich's 1932 Ford Roadster. Looks pretty good in this picture huh?

Note the clock in the background, it's 6:20am Thursday morning, April 20th, 2017 when I took these pictures. This is been a busy week. Detailed a 1972 Buick on Tuesday, Detailed a brand new Mercedes-Benz S 550 yesterday and today this old 2-door Ford. Detailing is one thing, taking the pictures and the creating a write-up about doubles the time needed, so a guy has to start early.

Beautiful work Mike!

That black paint has an endless shine to it.

Topped with one of the Gyeon coatings?

[JustJesus]

whoa. yeah, looks good, but then it doesn't.

Huh. Okay. That comment was before the other post (after the correction) was posted.
Yeah, it looks good!

Jusr what you see in the picture.

Compound
Polish
Primer

More info tomorrow, started at 6:00am and finished the detail and the pictures in the thread at 5:00pm, so more tomorrow.

I was thinking about applying a Gyeon coating but my normal protocol is to match the LSP to the customer and a liquid wax would be a better match to Rich the owner.
