Nice job bringing the car back to the shiny side. I am really surprised how badly the paint looked considering it's really a new car.

Re: Lexus is250 Black and swirly!

Thanks for all the positive comments lads and thanks very much for that link Mike. Here are the afters from the Lexus:







And just another few I have done recently.

E30 m3. This was a similar process to the lexus.


Mitsubishi Evolution 7. Just #80 and the pc for this and alot of patience.
Followed with two coats of #21.
Just to note the calipers for anyone who has one of these cars: My friend thought they were in need of a respray but we sorted them out Megs style! APC sprayed and agitated a couple of times to make sure it was clean. Then hand polished with #80 two to three times followed by two coats of #26. Not quite as good as a respray but definatley alot better.



Last one.
I did this bike yesterday. It was my first time do to a bike.
I look forward to doing more and getting better at them.
Nxt Metal polish on the exhaust and #80 on the carbon fibre part.
#80 by pc on the paint. I found this quite challenging to do overall but Im looking forward to doing another one.



Thats it for now. I really hope this all appears on the forum properly!

I llok forward to doing a complete thread on a detail now that im able to upload pictures. I have a 1983 porsche to do soon which will be a good one to document. Black and all !

asim_296 ---- How much time did you spend on this one?
As far as I can remember around 15 hours. Thanks for the comments.
