Good lord, you do amazing work!

Yea, long story short I hit a patch of gravel and I spun out.

Peleg's work is phenomonal. Pictures don't really do it justice, the entire right side was scuffed and scraped. All but 3 or so very deep scratches came out. I though I was going to have to dish out a few grand to get my car repainted. Thanks Peleg.

No prob.

did my Uncles 1955 Ford F100 today.

this truck was built 100% in the driveway/garage by my uncle. when he bought the parts, most of them fit in the back of his bronco. then the rest was trailered in.

everything has been redone.

the truck was painted blue first, and that lasted for about 3-4 years. then my uncle put the better motor in, and decided it was time for a color change.

sanded it all down, did all the body work, and put 2 coats of paint, and 2 coats of clear.
this was done early in the morning in the driveway, no paint booth, nothing. just simply shot the truck in the drive way with a set up that dryed relatively quickly. still waiting more than 24 hours between coats.

as you can see there were a lot of areas that had sand marks, fade, and some over shot areas of clear... it is a driveway paint job, lol...

the truck had never been buffed out, after the clear was shot. so it sat for over a year with out any wax, or buffing ever to be done.

Meguiar's Gold class shampoo
Clay bar bath
Mequiar`s fine cut 5/10 Orange med pad
Mequiar`s Cleaner wax white semi med pad
Mequiar`s Show car glaze black finishing pad
Mequiar`s Mirror Glaze black finishing pad

results

that was about the 4th clay bar that the rtuck killed, that was after a few passes. the whole passenger side was cover`d in some of the worst tar/over spray i have ever seen.

.

i thought the truck was black, and it was when i started, but it ended up being grey with a very deep metalic flake.....

how long does a job like that take you? looks clean man!

BrewPubeaver · 06-20-2008, 09:49 AM

the truck was about 16 man hours...

there were 2 of us, so it goes 3 times faster

Peleg · 06-20-2008, 10:35 AM

4 clay bars, 1 truck..........enough said............that's just crazy.........people leave the paint untreated for years and that's what happens.

Nice work Brew.

lol, that is too fancy for me, lol... you can just get the wallmart kit for 20 bucks, and it will do the same thing.... but i am not a fan of washing the whole car at the same time. i start at the top and work my way down...

What Walmart kit?

I start at the top as well.

This kit just allows you to soak up the entire car so the dirt lifts up easily. DetailersDomain uses it.
