Sign-up: 1990 Corvette SUPER TRASHED! - Thursday, February 20th

What can I say but the paint on my buddy Jay's 1990 Corvette is


SUPER TRASHED!


But here's the good news... We're going to fix it here at Autogeek next Thursday night.

Now the paint looks good in this shot...





But here's what it really looks like using Mr. Sun to reveal the true condtion...











This Corvette has the original clearcoat finish on it and this era of clear is known for being very hard when it comes to defect removal. So chances are good we're going to attack this with rotary buffers and something...


So who's with me?

Jay has already washed this car and then chemically decontaminated the paint using Iron X at our last Autogeek Car Wash Day....




Here's Jay spraying down the original paint with Iron X




There's not a lot of iron contamination but that's actually a good thing. Iron X is one of those product you want to use but you don't actually want to see massive contamination as that means your paint has been corroding.




















This was the first time Jay had seen and used a Foam gun....





Jay's new favorite car washing tool.




So while she'll be clean when she gets here we'll still have to mechanically decontaminated the paint.


We start at 5:00pm and I'll see if Nick has anything new for us to test out...

Good to know Mike. I did invite one of my neighbors but he's waiting until you have a boat.

This topic makes me call my thursday's poker night boring... how I wish I was there.

Wish good luck and an enjoyable day for everyone.

'Hey Jay', looking good on that foam task man, I suppose you got Xtreme Foam in that bottle? I've done that so many times, just looking at your pictures reminds me that 'minty' smell.

Wish you could share some pics for us to enjoy while in progress.

Counting down.

Kind Regards.

I will go meet you guys one day Mike, I can only imangine the fun I'd have with you guys.
When I say one day I mean it, I'll fly over, stay a week and take in some Florida sun
I must check the airlines to see what a round trip from Louisiana to AG headquarters and back would cost, I know whatever the price it will be worth it
