Done. I parked the wife's lowly SL500 out in front this morning and took a fresh picture.

Going to be a Monster Jeep. Something with Chevy running gear, huge lift and 44" tall tires.

Hey Mike, what's involved for the people that attend? I just have some convincing to do. :)

Well.... we're going to sand the paint flat then remove our sanding marks. After that we're going to polish the paint to a high gloss. Anyone that attends will get to help out and if they've never done this type of work before then they'll have the opportunity to learn how it's done.

It's not a class, but I will be playing Lead Dog and managing the entire process from start to finish. We'll be using a variety of tools, pads and products plus hand sanding and machine sanding.

I personally would never convince anyone to do this type of project but over the course of my life I've noticed people, and by people I mean specifically people that are into car detailing, either as enthusiasts or professionals, want to have wetsanding as a skill set they possess but after possessing it the majority never want to use it.


:)

^^Thanks for the info. As for convincing, I meant I have to convince the wife to let me head down that way. But, I understand, completely. :)

Will you be streaming all or any of this live?

Because this is on a Saturday, I doubt it. I can check with Yancy though.

We can do some simple things like Facebook Live.
