Re: My Little 12v Project!!!
Well i finally got my ass into gear today and took the car thru its first steps of gettin smooth paint work!!!
Today i polished it with a R2 compound, rubbed all into paint work and then taken off with a nice clean new cloth,
All plastics have been heated up with a heat gun to bring back the black colour to the arches!!!!
Next Steps are the G3, G7 then Finally G10 compound all rubbed into paint work, then taking of with a buffer!!!
Once all them are done i will be then waxin with a Mirror Glaze Polish.
Pics arnt that good!!!!
