As I think
rydawg,
MBenz, and
Clean Dean, (and others I`m not thinking of) would agree, IMO to *REALLY* appreciate what great work this is you have to have some experience with Benzes of that vintage. The clear is lacquer, thin, and somewhat fragile under the best of circumstances. To do that sort of aggressive work on it without simply cutting through takes an incredible amount of skill
And heh heh, I`ve been giving
bufferbarry plenty of those lectures about ETGing the paint
bufferbarry- Ah, now that I see things more clearly, the spots I was worried about don`t look so bad. That turned out even better than I`d thought, what a save!
Did it seem like the *oxidation* was what like a really hard layer on top of the paint? What I mean is, I never found the clear on those very hard, and the most aggressive of your steps would normally, IME, have cut off a *whole* lotta clear in no time :think:
Days later, I`m still amazed that you had to get that aggressive! When you told me what you were doing I was simply :nervous2:
