The objective for this detail was to revive the paint. The vehicle was painted before the current owner purchased it in 1984.
The vehicle was stored for 20 years. The engine was rebuilt, some items freshened up and it was back on the road this July.
The owner mentioned it was painted with IMRON paint... Being 35, I had never heard of this. Single stage, sure, but not imron.
A quick search on Autogeek, 4 results for threads talking about how to polish this kind of paint came up.
Wash: Ultima rinseless wash
Clay: CG fine clay mitt
