The Gator 98 Navigator Barry Theal Presidential Details

Well every noow and then we get a chance to do a vehicle outside the norm. This navigator was a piece loaded with 22 inch ashanti's air shocks custom interior, neon, flames, you name it it was one it. I got the call from the owner who uses this as a daily driver. Anyway I let the pics do the talking. Sorry not much of a write up , but I have been busy lately

Ardex 1500 meg maroon wool rotory
ardex 1500 Purple foamed wool Rotory Thanks Dj
Ardex Highline 90 ppi 6 inch foam
wolfgang fuzion
Ardex new wave degreaser in various dilutions
claymore aggressive clay

now onto the pics



















As you can see the paint was in some really bad shape.

Now onto the afters!

Your end of the deal was great, outcome was terrific.

Too bad the truck doesn't deserve to look that good with what the owners taste in upgrades is.

Well what can I say, I had to see this thing when it was dirty and it was pretty banged up. Great save Barry. How did the free PFW work for you?

not my cup-o-tea either, but you really turned a hacked up car into a liquidy shiny one once again!
