I would have recommended that he'd need a repaint... just because that green is horrible!

Green Pea Soup anyone?

Re: Farfigswirlin...

Re: Farfigswirlin...

where did the dent go, to the right of the discolored area above the door? The first pic shows a dent, the after pic has no dent. do you practive paintless dent removal? I've been tinkering with the idea.

kinda goes hand in hand with detailing.

ahh missed that part

Re: Farfigswirlin...

what was your basic process on it since the paint seemed pretty thin?

Yes, aftermarket paint that was very thin! 3.2mils was the thickest measurement I got.

Process was
M105 with a wool pad on the Dewalt....very lightly!!!
80 on the DA with a yellow pad
66 for the wax.

For some reason NXT 2.0 streaked pretty bad on this paint. Hope it was a fluke.

Re: Farfigswirlin...

Awesome results. Love the reflection shots.
I would like to get a paint thickness guage. Are there any places that sell these that are not ridiculously expensive?

Re: Farfigswirlin...

Thanks guys! The girl that owns this vehicle was shocked! She just knew the paint wasn't repairable. And to be honest, with the paint being as thin as it is, I wasn't real sure how many defects I was going to be able to remove. It's a long ways from perfect, but it bought her a couple of more years to enjoy her car before she has to worry about repainting it

Re: Farfigswirlin...

Nick, you did wonders on the VW. No more swirls or discolorazation. Looks great, Great work as usual.

Re: Farfigswirlin...

That definitely was some swirling. Great job on the paint. Is that an aftermarket paint job? What process did you go with?
