Greetings:

I came upon this site from a posting on Garage Journal. the main interest I have in learning how to detail cars is that I am restoring a 1952 Hudson Commodore and I have plans to restore more Hudsons.

I painted this Hudson in Acrylic Lacquer and the color sanding and buffing were a challenge, I need to redo the hood as I am not satisfied with it yet. I used a PC orbital for the buffing, took a while but I did not burn through any edges. I plan on buying a rotary and then tackling my wife's Grand Cherokee. So I need to learn a lot from this forum.

I am going to attach a picture of the Hudson if it goes through.

I posted some more pictures in the Click and Brag section. The post is under review so I can't make a link.
