When you can just wet sand and buff half of a hood!


For those that have seen my blazer in person....it is horrible...and thats being generous! Well I figured good thing for business would to be wet sand and buff half the hood and ride with it! Im the MAN

Again though I wish I had a better camera...because any these shots dont show just HOW BAD the hood really is with the befores!

Before:

Nice day outside so went and got some more with my crappy camera! Shows even better the difference from one side to the other!

Very interesting, definitely a great idea to show how dramatic a before and after can be. You've got a rolling advertisement right on your hood. I like it!

I really just wish I had a better camera to get the befores and afters. Befores are just horrible. Afters you still have some VERY deep RIDS. Bad enough if you get close enough to the paint you can actually see the depth of them. Kinda like Mike P. said, light ones hide the worst ones! Which I expected. Plus theres alot of solvent pop in the paint.
