Welcome Kristin....nice shades!

***Update***

Of course I'm documenting all this with my trusty, dusty Canon Rebel but here's a quick update... this car has SINGLE STAGE PAINT!

Since it's not white, that means it's actually very soft. So we have to be very careful around raised body lines and edges but it also means that the swirls and scratches are buffing out so easy...

Most of the guys working on this project except for myself and Adam have never buffed out an entire car that has single stage paint so this is a real treat for them as cars like this with single stage paint are becoming so RARE!

The paint is coming out so GLOSSY just by machine polishing that I think we're all going to be blown away after we apply the Dodo Juice Orange Crush Soft Wax

Stay tuned... we've already started the last machine polishing step and Adam is polishing all the stainless steel and chrome...

Welcome Kristin! Can't wait to see the final project, I'm sure it will be awesome!

Welcome to Auto Geek Kristin. When is the auction? Hope it's tomorrow, it's a date that is easy to remember (11/11/11).

Welcome Kristen.
Mike, great idea by using the placeholder! It'll be nice to see the whole story without being unintentionally broken up!

Kristin is beautiful and incites Carnal thoughts in my devious little mind. In spite of that, I warmly welcome her to the AG community, LOL.
