Still needs a full re spray its just gone past the point of no return but just goes to show how you can bring even terrible single stage paint back up to a decent standard

I'm surprised how well that has come out, you can REALLY see the difference. Is it not like that all over ? I mean does it need a respray ?

That's because im awesome and when mini me grows up he wants to be just like me pmls
Yep as most should know pictures can make a turd look great, now the finish has come out ok with the gul but even tho the bonnet looks smooth its like sand paper with all the shards that have dug into the paint also all the doors, wings, bumpers and boot have rust/dents scratches etc on them the roof is about the only half decent bit of paint on the car but still has lots of flaws so full re spray needed.

MInes is getting a full hit too, i did polish it like you did but althought it looked good it was still needing taken back down to bare metal and painted. I managed to get a steel sunroof for mine too which is quite neat :)

I just picked up a rotary kit so I'll be giving both cars a good going - over.
Expect pics ;)
Second is the bonnet now this is in a terrible state not only had the paint oxidised but it looks like some one had been grinding near and covered all the bonnet
I use the machine polisher for this
Enjoy
