^ All done, now the car just needs to be put together and cleaned up and the bumper needs to be the dirts removed too.

Hand sanded with 1500 wet sand then I hit it with 3000. Then compound and polish and final polish.

I know the work is hard sometimes...but you're gaining so much valuable
knowledge and experience by working on these body-shop job assignments.
And according to your photos: "The proof is in the pudding".

Kudos goes out to you Art!!

Thanks guys, I just got home. I am tired but it was a good day at work. I really enjoy doing that type of work. sanding, buffing, polishing etc... Instead of taking my Rupes I am going to "try" and just take some Foam pads to do final touch ups and just leave my Rupes for special more precise detail work. Especially on dark colored paint jobs. I'll be taking Cutting pads, polishing pads and finishing pads and run them on the Air powered DA they have there at work. (won't hurt to try) so we'll see how it goes. :buffing:

I"ll report back... :xyxthumbs:
