    Black SS 2 stage paint correction detail

    Hey guys, thought I'd post up another one for ya. Haven't posted a lot since I sold the camaro, lots of stuff going on in life right now. But the show must go on right? Well as I've been busy, pics have been stacking up!

    Here is a SS I've done twice before. Been caring for this car for about 4 years I think. Been over a year since the last time I saw it though. Since then, its been through a move and lots of mods, and needed some attention. I was happy to make it look as good as it sounds.

    Process:

    -Foamed with Dawn
    -Dawn wash
    -Zaino Claybar (Z18)
    -ONR as clay lube
    -Mothers Chrome Polish on tips
    -Gloss-It Signature Tire Gloss
    -Menzerna SIP x2
    -PCXP LC orange 5.5"
    -IPA wipedown
    -Blackfire Wet Diamond sealant



    Before pics










    SWIRLS!!!! Their days are numbered!

    Excellent recovery!

    The owner had to be blown away, unless they are the ones putting those swirls into it in the first place.

    Too bad the same couldn't be said for the actual owner of the car. Wow!

    Great job on bringing a new life to that paint. I've owned a black car so I understand how difficult it is to keep it up, but it looks like this guy just plain gave up. Hook him up with some grit guards and a couple of 5 gallon buckets!

    Nice job...Blackfire Wet Diamond Sealant on black paint is absolutely amazing. I've yet to be disappointed by that product on very dark colors.
    In my day we didn't have the Internet, iPods,iPads, or smart phones....but we had some really bad-azz cars.
