Should this be considered part of a museum?

[bigfoot]

I personally don't think so So, who pitches in for this one?

Oh come on, that's the authentic look of whatever that is out in the world using typical wash practices.

that depends.. is it orginal paint if so then yeah i dont think it should be polished. Keep that paint aslong as possible. If its a repaint and a resto then i would telll them to polish it out

Eh..most of the vehicles I see in museums are in awful shape marring-wise For that matter, an awful lot of "museum quality restorations" look like amateur hour up close.

While I'm a bit of a fanatic about not abrading original paint, that could at *least* use an application of something like Omega Glaze, or even good ol' Meg's #7.

I've been through the storage/maintenance facility of a big collection (which had better go unnamed or they won't let me back ) and it was downright depressing...I wanted to rescue the cars I liked, or at least treat 'em to *one* detail done properly Even my wife was shocked, but the other "serious car enthusiasts" who were with us didn't understand where we were coming from in the slightest
