  • 01 Accord

    2001 Honda Accord with fresh new paint ( about 2 weeks old )
    This car belows to my uncle who is trying to sell. I helped him repainting & detail the whole car, and sold it for much higher price.
    Car value is not high, so I did not spend too much effort on detailing the car. The D151 finishing down nice with wax on it. It does leave very light holograms, but not very obvious at all that buyer didn't even see it.

    Spot sand nib & dust with P2000 wet by hand
    DA sand P1500 Trizact wet, and follow up with P3000 Trizact wet
    Hood is pre-sand with P800 finish film dry with DA, followed up by P1200 wet by hand to remove pigtails

    Polished by Dewalt rotary buffer
    M95 + LC wool purple form pad
    D151 + Meguiar Cutting Form Pad

    Engine & all trims are dressed by D161 ( left over, will be switching to M40 )
    Interior is dressed by M40
    Window is cleaned by Spot Check ( local ) & D120

      D151 did an impressive job! The paint looks so much better. Good job!

        Great looking car! Just curious, but how much did the car end up selling for? I have the same car, just in a coupe, and am getting ready to sell it soon.

          It has 232K miles on it, so it didn't go much. I sold it for $3800, which my uncle was having hard time selling it for $2000. I painted and detailed it myself, so I was able to make about $1400 out of it. As a learning project, I am pretty happy with it.
