1982 Rolls Royce Silver Spur

[broker99]

Just finished this 1982 Rolls Royce Silver Spur this weekend. The car only had 47K on it with the orginal paint. I had to go old school with the single stage paint. Meguair’s #83 and #80 did the job nicely and followed up with #7. I finished it off with Autoglym HD wax. I know a lot of people don’t care for this wax but I really like on lighter colors.

As you can see the paint was very dull and oxidized

One Pass with #83

The afters

Very nice job. Ive used AutoGlym HD off and on for a long time now, and really like it as well. It lasts longer than waxes 3 times its price and looks great as well.

A classic beauty. Nice opening with Lady Ecstasy. Need the after shot on that for closure.:bigups

Very nice turnaround! I really don't care for #83 and #80 is mediocre at best (IMO). However, I CAN'T argue with those results!! Fantastic turnaround!

Great job , i bet the owner was amazed

Great work. Megs #83 and Megs #80 used to be staples in my detailing cabinet. They do work well on single stage paint.

#83 and #80 does ok on modern clear coats compared to some other products but on single stage I have found they work very well

Great job , i bet the owner was amazed

thanks yeah he was pretty happy. He has 3 other garages on his property with some more gems to keep me busy.

Great work. Megs #83 and Megs #80 used to be staples in my detailing cabinet. They do work well on single stage paint.

Thanks Pat. Its been awhile since I worked on single stage.

you achieved a beautiful transformation from dull to glossy on this classic. what did you use on the whitewalls?

thanks I used Power clean on the white walls. Power clean is a bit pricy but man it works so well on so many things.

Great work Chad, that looks amazing!

thank you very much Todd

Thanks Angelo. Glad I did have to go to the wool like we spoke about. It might have cleaned it up a little better but with that 30 year old paint I wanted play it safe.
