Default DETAIL: '99 Black WS6 w/custom flame paint

This fine example arrived here from out of state yesterday. I met the owner at this year's Dallas Autorama in February. It will be on display at the Houston Autorama Thanksgiving weekend. I will be trying to attend the show there on Friday. After inspection, aside from the fine lines and random scratches found, I started with Megs M105/LC 5.5" orange and yellow pads to start the clean up.


Once finished with the M105, I switched to the M205/gray pad to refine the surface even more. To complete today's treatment, an application of the TC carnauba creme and LC red foam applicator.













Questions/comments welcomed.

Steve,
You have worked wonders on Ramair1 and my hat is off to you!!! This car has not looked this pristine since taking delivery of her back in March of 99. You worked tirelessly w/o break or nurisment for the entire time I dropped her off to you. I so appreciate the work and can atest to the majic of your products and the results they accomplished to get her to this condition. I will do what ever I can to keep her this way. Again,
Thank you so much for your time and effort!!!
Sincerly,
sp

I believe that car was in HPP magazine a few years back, at least in their 2005 calendar anyway. Pretty hot car.
