I just finished the paint correction on my 97 Vette. Took a few days because of priorities. I Washed, clay, 3m pro compound, MEG ultra polish and the MEG Gold Classic +.

All swirls are out, it is a daily drive and it has some RIDS. So for a daily it still turns heads, people ask me about the shine and how old it is. They can't believe it is 14 yrs old and looks so bright and shinny.

I am very happy with the performance of the PC DA 7424xp. It tool a little time to learn the proper speeds with each pad but the results are amazing. Just have to read the clear Coat and work slow and easy.

Please let me know what you think of the polishing job I did. I am a noob to the power buffing/correction process. If you have any suggestions (product type) as to how to get an even deeper shine please speak up.

I still have a lot to learn, but that is what this site is all about, with its great members and staff to guide the way.

Looks awesome! I have an '04 z that hangs right with the newer cars! If you know what you're doing, which you do... It doesn't matter how old the finish is to remain glossy. Proper technique is everything.
