  • Black TA.....

    Here's a black Trans Am we just recently finished. This thing had more DEEP swirls than I've ever seen. Couldn't get everything out, but the owner was pretty pleased with the results.

      Process was M105 and a wool pad. Then 80 with a DA and a yellow foam pad. #21 for the wax.

      Oh, and he just wanted the paint worked. He didn't want me to polish the wheels

        Here's a shot I took during the transformation. Notice the right side, you cant even tell it's a light in the reflection

                    I am baffled by people with nice cars that look like that one did.
                    Nice transformation! Great work!
                    It reminds me of what i seen yesterday, a guy at a used car dealer getting snow off of a truck hood with a scraper. I had to do a triple take to convince myself what I was seeing was real.
                    on, people!

                      Nick, what a improvement. It looks wet. As usual great work. Way to go.

                        It baffles me too, but at least he had the good sense to have a pro take care of it and now he'll probably go back to him to take care of the paint.

                        Good show.

                          Awesome. The F-body clear tends to be very hard.

                            Can I ask you to elaborate on this. I thought GM has said they have no plans in bringing back the Firebird.

                              I would also like more info.
                              That would drop the prices on the t/a's
