Today's visitor to the shop was a 1974 Jeep. The Jeep is a beach cruiser and has been in storage for nearly a year. It was recently sold and the owner wanted it cleaned up prior to delivery. When it arrived at the Art of Shine, Shine Mahal, it was covered in overspray, chipping paint and to top it off, it appears that it was painted with a rattle can. But, the owner was aware of the issues of machine polishing and absolved me of all liability if I destroy it.
This was not an extreme makeover and just a clean up of the paint as best as I could get it. Again, paint was too unstable to be any more aggressive than a black LC pad and XMT 360.
