Cadillac 1971 paint correction

[SPIROS ANTONIOU]

Hello Guys ..
Greetings from Cyprus
Long time ago I was asked from someone to detail his car .He complain to me that his car loose his reflection and has sunburn paint .
The owner was planning to repaint the car or to do a special treatment if this its possible to give the lost shine to the car

First of all I was very honor to work on such a rare car. I knew that 2-3 days wasn't enough so start as soon as possible ..
I start cleaning the wheels with a combination of meguairs all purpose cleaner (1:10) and autosmart g101 (1:10)

Iron x was sprayed to the paint for de iron .. I am sure that the car never had this before. I was expecting to find more iron participate .

I wash the car with Duragloss 901 which I believe its an excellent shampoo and then clay with artdeshine clay cloth

I tried test spots and soon I find some compination that worked for different panels of the car.Compounding stage was done yellow edge (heavy polishing pad) and sholl s3 or m101, or mf pads and d300

Here some 50-50
