Finished.
The car just glistens in the studio.
I'll share some picture tomorrow and as soon as the video is created from the time-lapse I'll add it to the first post of this thread.

Re: Time-Lapse Video: Wetsand, Cut and Buff 1964 Malibu
This is the last car project I'll be doing here at Autogeek as a single guy as I'm leaving in a few hours and won't be back till Tuesday, March 19th, so this is the last write-up for any projects for a while...
It was cloudy the day Mike Gelter brought his 1964 Chevy Chevelle Malibu Convertible to Autogeek but I did take a few before pictures to show the current condition of the paint.
Under the cloudy sky you can see the orange peel, it actually looks worse under fluorescents and if I can find the "before" pictures I took under the florescent lights in the studio I'll add them to this thread...
IF you look closely you can see dieback in the paint, that's where the paint shrinks back into the prep sanding marks in the primer. These all sanded and buffed out.
Time Lapse Video
Yancy has the Time Lapse Video that shows from the solvent wipe down to the final application of wax and everything in-between. As soon as he has it edited and uploaded I'll add it to the first post of this thread.
Beauty Shots
Until then, here's the beauty shots. I machine sanded twice, compound with wool and rotary once, polished with rotary and foam once, polished with a DA polisher once and then machine applied Pinnacle Souveran Paste Wax.
Here's Mike the owner driving the car out of the garage...
The sun shots....
Into the trailer and back home...
Here's everything I used.
I did the entire project by myself and I think the time-lapse video will show it took me approximately 12 hours. (No roof, A-pillars or B-pillars to sand and buff)
