How does it look, I got some the other day and wanted to break it in on this (single stage paint)

car hasn`t been washed in over 3+ years :rofl:







Plan of attack is to clay

#83 or SSR2.5 (I just got the SSR but not sure I want to waste it as I have a gallon of #83)

May just go w/ #80 depending on how bad the swirls are once I wash it.





Top w/ Natty`s, was also thinking of throwing #16 on there.



I do have Pinnacle Signature Series, S100, NXT, Rejex, Zaino, M21, #20 and a few others though.

Trsut me man, I just spent the better part of 2 days working on singke sage white paint, and I still couldn`t get the ALL the swirls out... Good luck with it.



I topped with AIO and UPP and it does look great! Very reflective, which I think it good for a white car!

Yea, I definatley don`t plan on making this car perfect. It definately needs a repaint one of these days anyways (paint is stock we believe, and there are a few spots where you just see metal)

Thats a sweet looking 58 , I think even Elvis would give you :2thumbs: . Happy detailing :buffing:





BTW . Natty`s would make that white look wet . I would just use either #16 or nattys . Good thing with the white is you really have to look for swirls but in the right light they pop up.



How bad is the paint ?

Well, it`s dirty, i haven`t gotten under it. It had a full detail on it`s last cleaning for the 2002 rose parade :LOL:





I`m hopefully gonna attack it on saturday if my back holds up.



As mentioned we think the paint is original. There are a few bare metal spots where it`s been burnt through :(

natty`s i`ve found to be an excellent topper, much better than paste glaze

never tried PG, but have tried SS and wasn`t to pleased.





Do you guys suggest me putting something under the natty`s ( a polymer) The car doesn`t "need" the protection as it`s in a garage 99.9% of the time (may be driven 6-12 times a year)
