Just thought I would share today's progress with you guys. The red e28 is under-going a total paint restoration. It began cloudy, dull, and almost flat-red in some spots. We got step 1 of the buffing/waxing done today, with a huge thanks to my friend Matt (owner of the toyota corona I am always posting).
Today we cut the surface with a cleaner wax and a wool pad.
Tomorrow we should be doing a cleaner wax with a foam pad to take out the swirls and such. Then we'll be soft wax with the foam pad. Finally, we'll be applying a carnuba(sp?) wax by hand.
Here are before pics-
And after-
I'll post updates.
Tomorrow Erik (Bimmerteck) and I should be starting up my dad's 32 Ford Roadster. We pulled it out of storage a few months ago, where it had been sitting for 15 years. My father basically asked me to get her back up to snuff. I'll post pics of that aswell.
