Unfortunatelly I've got only after pictures...no before and during the correction process.
This car was handled with the utmost respect...it is a 1968 Ford Galaxy with single stage paint, so no room for mistakes, although it has been resprayed somewhere between the 70's or 80's. The car used to be a daily driver in the past but now, the owner drives it ocasionaly only. It was covered in dust and the paint was HEAVILY contaminated.
The process:
1. Car was washed using waterless techniques. Didn't want water getting into crevices I could not dry out.
2. Paint was decontaminated using nanoskin Autoscrub. When gliding the nanoskin though the paint, I could hear the conamination been caught and removed
3. Some parts of the car had to be carefuly wetsanded with 2000 and 3000 grit. Used a foam interface to avoid removeing the natural orange peel.
4. The paint was very hard on this car...to get an effective defect removal, had to do the 1st cut with a wool pad + compound.
5. Polishing was done with D.A and SONAX PF
6. Chrome was cleaned with Megs METAL Polish
7. Engine bay was carefuly cleaned...just a cosmetic clean-up
It was a 4 day correction process and I must say I really enjoyed working on this car.
