Yes, it's definitely that time of year! The weather is perfect and all the Vette guys want their cars lookin' sharp!

This is a '64 Corvette Coupe, 327/300, 4-spd, 100% correct, strong #2 car. Very nice and well maintained.

Paint correction only. The clearcoat on this car was getting pretty thin, just from age. He wanted the swirls removed, but not the clearcoat (ya think?! LOL).

I started with 205, but it wasn't cutting the swirls, so I switched to 105.

Process:

He washed the car prior to my work
Meg's Quick Clay
M105/PC/LC Orange/KBM/Very Light pressure!
M205/PC/LC White
IPA Wipedown
Blackfire WD/PC/3m Waffle pad
Z8 Final Wipedown
Pictures

Swirls weren't too bad... a couple before shots, lots of after shots...

The "tape line" is very hard to see because the car is the same color as the sky!:D

For someone who's retired, you have been busy Bill. The 64 Coupe looks awesome! Thanks for sharing it here with us!:thumbup:
 
Hey Luster.... that's a pretty sweet Vette! I think I may have seen your car at some local car shows in KC.

Nice work on the'64!
