1993 Integra meets OCDetails

What a beast. I actually saw this car last year about this time. It was serving as some sort of wood bench for a construction project. All I could tell was that it was very oxidized and needed some love. The son who owns it has been out of the country for the last couple years, but he returns in a few weeks, so I guess they decided to spruce it up for him. Enter OCDetails. :) Their neighbor across the street has been a terrific source of referals for me and a really good friend. So when the topic came up, I was refered to the good Doctor and his wife.

I used Four Star 4-40 One Step and topped it with Four Star Ultimate Paint Protection. The work was done with the Edge 2000 orange pad on the UDM. I really don't think the extra power of the UDM helped at all though. I switched to the PC halfway through because the UDM sprayed 4-40 all over me when it accidently switched on while loading the pad. I could have thrown it in the garbage right there. That switch has to be fixed... Anyway, the results can be atributed to the product and the pad used. The whole job with engine, interior, and exterior took four hours from start to finish and I charged $160. I think it looks much better now. :)

Very nice work! I'm sure their son will thank them very much for taking such good care of his vehicle while he was gone. :lol:
 
Yeah, it pretty much looked like that a year ago, so I'm sure he left it for them in pretty shoddy shape. That isn't the sort of oxidation that happens from two years sitting in a garage. lol It's just typical 1993 Honda paint.
 
Yeah, doubtful, but we'll see. :lol: This thing had a lot of damage that wasn't going to be repaired. The hatch, spoiler, passenger door, and part of the passeger rear quarter panel had all been worked on before. The thought is that it was rolled prior to '97 when they bought it. And it had a lot of clear coat failure going on. Nice big flakes of it.

What did you use for the engine? It looks great. I really need to do the engine on my car but always get nervous when I think about it.
 
Bravo, Anthony!! Love to see that old Integra rejuvenated. Glad to see that you're still keeping busy and cleaning up the neighborhood, one car at a time :). When's the next OCD gathering?
 
damn US Rust Free cars... there is no way you could find a 93 intergra here in nova scotia with zero rust on it..... i envy US cars lol
 
I hope you dont mind, but I used your pics on my mustang forum to demonstrate to someone what a Orbital buffer can do to a car! It looks amazing. The kid will be ordering a PC very shortly now! Lol, i also put him onto some Poorboys stuff
