84 Cadillac with 13,000 miles

[acc1079]

Yes, thats right, 13000 miles on this car. Unfortunatly, the few miles it had on it, someone had washed it with a brillo pad. The paint had swirls and rids ALL OVER IT. Got about 95% out, some were just to deep to chase. Spent a total of 28 hours on this mammoth. I think the hood has enough real estate to warrant its own area code!!

But enough chatter, on to the pics!!

Amazingly enough, after washing, the clay hardly picked up ANYTHING on the whole car. This is WG poly clay, after the entire hood. All 500sq ft of it!! :gasp:


After getting it under the lights.... this is what I was greeted with on the whole car.

Here are a few obligatory 50/50 shots




Gotta love the mirror reflection shots. I usually send a couple of these to the customer via text message as a tease along the way.

Hope you enjoy. I am still not the most proficient on picture taking, so excuse the poor quality. If any questions, just ask. Thanks.
