  • Black Civic for a fellow forum member...

    Fellow local forum member "breakep3" approached me asking for some help with his car. He was struggling with the paint and needed some guidance. Same story, previous owner didn't appreciate the vehicle, and just ran it through the local car wash.
    He and a friend of his brought it to me last Monday(July 7th), and we went to town on it. I buffed it with Solo and a Solo maroon wool pad while they played Playstation. Then we went over the basics of the PC, and how to use it. I gave both of them a little guidance, and then the 3 of us finished up the car with a little 80, and then some 151.

            Hmmmm, not sure why. I can see them fine. Anyone else have the red X problem?

              No problem here. The Honda looks great Nick. Once again excellent work there. It was great of you to give a forum member the pointers of the pc. Love the reflection shots.

                    Great job Nick. I just worked on one of these last weekend but it was silver.

                      Nice job! Great pictures! Is that Nighthawk Black?

                      I have a Ridgeline that same color. The clear coat was a scratched and cracked up mess before I restored the finish. I was ready to have the hood repainted before I decided to try a radical restoration process using Meguiar's products.

                      Here's a slide show of the restoration process below.
