The 3 Amigos With a Date!

[Old Pirate]

Here are my photos and write up everyone and this is not to steal from Ron`s thread.:


Well after a 2 hr drive, I got to Ron`s place around 8:00 am. I saw him taping his Corvette and from there I park and said hello and shake his hand and from there took over the taping for him. Once I finish taping I remove all my gear of Towels, pads, machines etc etc etc. Took a good look at the wonderful work our fine american car dealers do to cars in their hands.....





Once I saw the awesome work they do, I started with a Hydro-Tech Tangerine on my Rotary with M205 Polish. After a few passes with it I found that this is what I was going to use.





After a few panels done the gang also started using Poorboy`s World SSR1 Light Abrasive Swirl Remover with the Rupes LHR 75E Mini Random Orbital Polisher using the Rupes Yellow Polishing Foam Pad also the Flex XC 3401 VRG Dual Action Orbital Polisher with the Griot`s Garage Professional Random Orbital 3 Inch Polisher which came in use for them tight spots on the Corvette.











We finish off and started to do the fine polishing using the Rupes and Detailer`s Coating Prep Polish IMO left the finish almost perfect! We proceeded with a great foam wash and blower to dry the Corvette so that we don`t touch the finish after the labor of love we gave it.





The flooding technique, for some who don`t know of it yet.





After all of our hard work, Ron wanted to use Cquartz UK Edition! Which I haven`t got to use or see in person yet till that day. He wipe the car down using CarPro Eraser Intense Oil & Polish Cleanser first to make sure the finish was clean and ready for the Cquartz UK. I was blown away by how easy this product was to use. After using it on that hood this is what I was happy to see:























And yours truely! Old Pirate



I would like to thank Ron for having me there and also Tropicsteve!

You guys really knocked it out of the park. For anyone who does not know black cars are not easy to get looking like this, and GM clear is about as hard a finish as there is to correct. Good Job team, you really made that car shine.

NOW, Ronny, I better not catch you smoking in it! (Or around it..nowhatamsayin?)

Enjoy it in the best of health!

I got worried since you hadn`t added anything to the other thread.... Then I saw this.

I see you got a pic of my imitation of a turtle on his back

The clarity in the paint is simply amazing! The light dances off the finish like 10 coats of carnauba. Exceptional work gents!!!

Awesome job done by all!!! Looks just dripping wet! Guess the polish holds up well in the heat.

i did forget to mention the interesting sounds that echoed around the vette as the old guys attempted to get back up from those low polishing positions. it was pretty funny.

You were on other side of car when I was "trying" to get up and Ang was laughing.
