Update
: Exterior Part Two- Paint Correction; Cut & Polish
The paint on the hood was saved!
Before:
After 2000 grit wet sanding:
After Cut/Polish & Re-Assembled Shots:
The polish job came out very nice. I used Chemical Guys cutting polishes, finished with Meguires glaze, all on a 6" WalMart buffer with micro-fiber polish pads.
For the bulk of the body, the original Milano Red paint only looks "pink" in a few spots on the sides near the roof-line. The roof of the car was not saveable, though, unfortunately. I had O'Riley's in Salisbury, NC mix up a can of Omni-Pak formula in R81-4 red. It's a spray can, single-stage, base+clear. I'll spot paint it asap to match the rest of the body.
Also, got started on this project...
More to come soon.
Thanks for
eco
-tuning in!
