Ya, so it isn't a Ferrari, but it's fun to work on cars that need a lot of love every once in awhile. This is a 12 year old Camry with ~160k km on it. Never waxed, polished...you know the drill. Anyway, I was ready for anything and that's what I got. I decided turned on my halogens and was, I admit, even a little shocked at just how rough it was. And this was the best couple panels.....
Details:
A lot of sanding
ec/op on a wool pad via rotary @1500rpm
hc white pad @1400 rpm
106ff via PC/white pad.
Duragloss 105
As you can see below I decided after heavy compounding that some scratches just weren't coming out. So I got out the sanding block.
At this point the sky decided it didn't like me, and we got a really awesome thunderstorm. I wish my camera had sound. My sad car in the rain... I decided to do the rear since it was in danger of getting wet. The trunk was in bad shape... it was crying out for help. I helped it with sand paper and hi-temp love.
Well I figured nothing could be worse than the trunk so why not go to the hood... I was wrong. I don't know what happened here, gang war? Pottery fight? Cats covered in glass?
And so on, and so forth for 9 hours. I did the interior too, but didn't take pics because I suck.
Maybe I gave it another 12 years. One can hope!
Cheers guys.
I think that is the most impressive makeover I have seen posted here. Just unreal improvement!
