Park Avenue Detailing: 1987 Toyota Celica Makeover

This car was badly oxidized. I removed the wiper arms, sanded and repainted with flat black to cover up the rust and paint flakage. Treated all the black trim with Opti-bond which livened it all up.

Process:

M95 with Yellow CCS via Flex on horizontal surfaces
SIP with Orange CCS via Flex on vertical surfaces
PO106FF with Green CCS via Flex
Collinte 845IW by hand

Nice! Was an excellent car for it's time (some still are).
I wouldn't mind owning an All Trac turbo. Rare...

You made that paint looks years and years younger. Excellent.
