This weekend I worked on a highly oxidized black F-150. It wasn't single stage paint and was really in bad condition. On with the pics.
Here is the before
I expected there to be swirls & scratches but with the condition of the paint before polishing it was hard to tell until I gave it the first pass.
A couple more passes and it began looking a little better.
Here is a half polished tailgate. I tried several combinations of polish before I was able to dial in what worked for me.
BEFORE
AFTER
I tried several combinations of polish & pads. I even tried M-105 which didn't do much for me but it did work great as a finishing polish. When I delivered the truck to the customer he had company over and when they all came out to see the end result they were amazed. They literally thought the truck was repainted which made me feel good and well worth the 13 hours spent on the paint. Once again another satisfied customer.
