When I first joined this board I mentioned that I had a friend who'd Grand National needed some love. Well today it got some. Eventually this car will need a new paint job. There were just some defects that couldn't be fixed.

My process was this.

Wash w/PB's suds

Clayed

Washed again

SSR2 w/orange pad on UDM (probably could have gotten away with SSR2.5)

PP w/bonnet

EX

I'll get back and do a coat of Natty's blue or Red next week. Here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure:

Excellent! those cars NEED to be polished!! I remember looking at a new GNX in the showroom and the paint was HORRIBLE!!
 
Not a bad job, it would just take forever to get out some of those RIDS and deep water spots with a PC/UDM. If he is going to get it repainted, its time to move up to a rotary as you have the prefect car to practice on.
