just read a few pb threads and they get some results, but people stil want to see older or bad condition cars done to prove results are possible for us mere mortals.

these are two pics to show what a first timer can achieve.
its my mk1 escort and was flat as a pancake and years of industrial grime deep in the paint.

what do you thinki have more



here are two bad to good pics.

and how did you manage that mate ???

and have ya got another pic of the hole car i really got a thing about yellow mk1s lol

 

Great turn around matey

Here is a old one i did

 

OMG how did you do this???

 

lads ,

bought a dual action rotary polisher for the price of one good valet and had a go.As a beginner i had no experience with a machine ,only hand polishing/waxing.so when i bought the mk1 i thought it needed painting it was so bad so i practiced on it so to speak as i didnt care if i damaged the finish.i would be repainting anyway.

Well it seems i didnt have to paint it after all(for the moment anyway)

I used a compound i got from local factors and wet polished it,very messy but brought paint back to life,then gave it a simple coat of meguairs and job done.

i watched a few videos online on the meguairs g220 and read topics like polished bliss for tips (thks by the way lads)


as i found it



Before

car just home and after a wash !!!!



roof , car was stored in a tile warehouse



mexico wings,worth a few bob these days but not like this



you can just see the crap deep in the paint



sad , sad , sad



During









After















have done about four other cars since and results are as goog if not better as i had a donor to practice on and make any mistakes.hard to damage paint with a da tho and thats why i got that type.

cheers
