Just completed, this car had the issues that only a fifteeen year old BLACK car can have(lol). What hampered me in the correction was extremely thin paint, and on the rear right "c" pillar someone had struck thru previously already.
I had readings as low as 60 microns on a few places and re-painted rear bumper, lower rocker and passenger door.
Did not have time to take as many pics as I would liked too, as I was WAY over time on this car, here is pic from the beginning before the wash of the wheel(s) which would later to my horror take 3.0 hr(s) to restore each.
Start of the paint correction 50/50 pics.
Inner part of the "C" pillar, marred up nicely.......
After compounding wool & foam pad steps.
As bad as the paint was, the clear film was just as bad deep RIDS that took FOREVER to correct.
After 1.5 hours of careful polishing.
Trunk 50/50's.
Dry & scratched.
50/50's of front quarter.
Lower passenger door panel that was egged, I sanded carefully to level the defect as much as I could.
Some correction was accomplished, but near as much as I would have liked as the damage was to deep.
Re-sprayed panel with heavy holograms(as usual).
After compounding.
