1989 IROC Convertible full correction (37 hours) The last few months have been extremely busy, so I'm pretty backlogged on photos as I have not as much time to be on the forums as I'd like. This IROC was completed a couple months ago when the weather was still nice in CA.
The owner of this car was looking to get the paint perfect after having a full repaint done. He is restoring the car and is nearly finished, so he wanted the paint to look perfect. The bodyshop had left their usual marks that needed sorting out. The owner is a successful engineer and not your typical IROC owner. His taste in other vehicles was quite nice. This particular car had significant sentimental value to him, so it had to be done right.
Total time spent: 37 hours
Products used for correction:
-3M Trizact 1500 & 3000
-Meguiars 101, 105, 300, 205
-Menzerna 85RD
-Makita rotary
-Griot's Garage 6" & 3" DA
-3D HD 6" DA polisher
-Surbuf pads
-Meguiars cutting discs
-Lake Country PFW, orange, white, black
LSP: Blackfire Wet Diamond
Upon initial inspection....
Holograms in headlight coves
Laying down, putting in the hard work.
Some of the nastier spots....
Bodyshop quality..........unacceptable
