Re: detailing old 36' ford cabriolet

#80 is always a good place to start for single stage paints.

I am still unsure about the #7 article... I have not done it myself of course, but rubbing in some #80 seems more gentle than working in #7 like crazy with a terry cloth to get the cleaning ability out of it.

if the 80 removes the swirl marks would i then apply the wax. or follow with something before??

#80 has a lot of oils, but can always add more with #7 after.

Did we ever figure out if it is an old single stage job, or clear coat? Old either way, so polishing oils would be a good idea.

Could always look into the finer polishes like Ult. polish or #205 in the future. But certainly oils for now.
