LIVE Detailing Class - Emblem Ghosting Removal via Wetsanding - 2001 Corvette
At 3:00pm today, about 15 minutes from now, we're going to show you how to improve, (not remove), the GHOSTING imprint left by the Corvette crossed flags emblem on the back of a 2001 Corvette via machine wetsanding.
NOTE: This type of paint defect CANNOT be removed 100% - so remember to keep your perspective REAL WORLD. It can however be dramatically improved before installing the new replacement emblem.
Here's the new emblem...

If you look below the new emblem you can see where the paint is etched from the old emblem PLUS scratches from who know what?
