Chevy Camaro
This one belongs to the guy that I do the 55 Chevy for. He wanted it cleaned up for winter and was gonna be out of town so it gave me a few days to work on it.
Paint was pretty swirled, interior was fine and the rims were water spotted.
Process:
Pre-soak rims w/P21
Pre-saok tires w/Megs DG
Wash w/Dawn
Dry with Vroom towel and leaf blower
Polished w/M105
106ff
Topped w/PBA
DG 105
AW x 2
Glass polished w/KAIO
Topped w/DG 105 and AW
Rims polished w/ Blue Magic polish and topped w/DP Paint Sealant
Tires got OB

Re: Chevy Camaro
For etching on wheels I have had good success with Danase Wet Spot Remover and Optimum Metal Polis Combo.
Camaro looks good.

I just got some DWSR and never even thought about trying it on chrome! Thanks for the heads-up!!! Do you use the metal polish by hand or machine?

Re: Chevy Camaro
Huge improvement in the cars appearance.
Nice detail work and also nice attention to detail in your write-up matching the same views in your before and afters.
