    '59 Chevy finally....

    Guys,

    I'm sorry, I took a long time to update you. In April, I got a bunch of advice from you all and Mike about my truck that the painter left me with no buffing or wet sanding accomplished. With all of your help, I spent HOURS on the truck and have got to a point that I'm going to stop. Seems every time I look at it, I see a scratch that I didn't buff out but I am going to take a break. One thing I want to ask about is I think I created a bunch of work for myself. I started with 1500 and finished with 2000 before going to M105 and M205 but I must have been pressing too aggressively with the paper or something because there were areas where the scratches were deep and took a lot of work to remove. I need to work on that. The other area I gave up on was the hood. Reaching over large areas and working with a hood that buckled every time I put the weight of the buffer on it, I may need to hire the hood to be done by a pro. These pics aren't great due to the shadows but it looks pretty good!





    Thank you again for all the help. Eventually, I want to try my daily driver Mustang. It's only a year old but has some swirls.

    Jeff
