1988 Porsche 911 Carrera - My first wetsand

Below are some pics. Unfortunately I didn't take any "before" pictures.

This was taken after I did the best I could using the Griot's oribital and their polishes:



Here's the roof. Again this was just with the Griot's machine:


Here she is after I was all done:


This shows how great a job I was able to do after wetsanding and using my new Flex 3401 with Menzerna PowerGloss Compound, Intensive Polish, Nano Polish 106, and Micro Polish 85RD.



And finally some good Porsche P0rn:

Fantastic work. FWIW folks, the scratches were very deep. He did an excellent job of taking his time an being methodical about his process. It turned out as good as any autopian could hope for.

Now you have to do the rest of the car so it matches.

See it gets addicting.

If you click through this (the pic links to Flickr) and look at the super high res version of this photo you can see where the Stongard film used to be:



Here's my favorite pic of the car. I took the photo, but a friend did some touchup. Note all these pictures were taken BEFORE I did the wetsand/polish work in this thread.
