Project Save Black Lexus GS300

my friend was telling me that he will drop it off since last year. well sunday evening was the day it was dropped off.

it had every imaginable scratch swirl etching, you name it it had it. it was a challange . Not all was removed as this was a repaint and poor one.Then at some point was sent to a car wash buff place where burn marks and other things were installed free of charge. Hood and fenders had a lot of pitting and chips , i touched up some of them but it would need repaint again to correct the problem there was to many of them - now after correcting paint they stand out like sore thumb..

product used
clay bar
Meg degreaser
SnapOn rotary with Meg Soft Buff cutting pad FG400
Flex 3401 with Lake County tangerine pad and Wolfgang Glaze
black fire wet diamond paint protection
black fire midnight sun paste wax
CG tire dressing

almost done, ill post more pix with tires done and sealer topped with wax. those pix are after compound and polish

thanks for watching…
and sorry not to many test spots…
