Re: 2006 Monterey Red Corvette Restoration - It all started with a "scratch"
Great writeup, the photos along with what you and Dani accomplished is amazing.
Beautiful job on a very neglected automobile.......poor thing probably breathed a sigh of relief.

Lol thank you, yeah this one had us holdin' our breath until we did the test spot...talk about waiting to exhale! Once we saw it was coming out good with some work, it was a big relief.

For posting yet another, (almost beyond description):
'Vehicle-correction'...Nay: "A Perfection" of a vehicle.
You are, as I've stated before: A World-Class Detailer...Indeed!!
(BTW: So is Dani!!)
Notes:
-Tell Dani I said Hi...
-Man it would be nice for us to get out to see you guys.

Bob, now you KNOW i had you in mind when i did this write up...i knew you'd be one of the first ones to reply lol.
I appreciate the compliments and glad you took the time to read. Not sure if we're world class and all that but, we try. Something that has really helped me lately is a group i made on Facebook called Detailer Buddies, got a few hundred people that have joined, from around the world...its like a 24/7 detail fest lol. Its great to have a ton of other high end detailers to be able to ask questions to 24/7.

Lol well we left him with some good info and good materials to be able to help take care of it. We'll probably be out there in a month or so to do a re-seal on it to make sure it never reaches that oxidized mess that it was again.

Yes i think it was happy to see us . The funny part, the ORIGINAL owner of the car...worked at the very same Chevy dealership...I think you can put 2 and 2 together and figure out who probably did most of the ''maintenance'' of the car during the original owners time of position...

D300 is definitely awesome...ive used it with a mix of 105 and even 101, and its great with both in most circumstances. Only down side is that it gets the pad pretty saturated and it takes time to clean it out if there is no air compressor available. But, its still awesome

Wow that paint was just hammered. Can't believe a Vette was left to get oxidized like that. You guys revived it to its glory. Great job!

I honestly thought your camera was messed up or out of focus or something with the before pics until I scrolled down and took a look at the 50/50 shot of the hood test spot! WOW what a difference you guys made on that one! Good job

Lol, seriously? I guess i could see how you thought that, i mean it WAS that bad...thats why i love the 50/50 shots, it really shows that hey, this wasn't a bluff to try to make the paint look worse than it really was...it REALLY WAS that bad!
Thanks for reading
