Default Treated the Camaro to a little lovin'

After the accident and having the new windshield installed, I figured I would do a detail on her. 7 hours worth of wet sanding and compounding, then another 4 hours to put three coats of wax on it and detail it.

For 27 year old paint, it buffed out pretty good :up:

It's far from perfect. There's tons of surface imperfections, it needs paint/body work. However I just figured I would do the best that I could with this paint, and it came out pretty good!

You should DEFINITELY meet me at Tower Shops this Friday. There's always a nice row of new Mopars, your Charger would fit right in...

Three coats of wax? You wasted your time as you can not layer wax. Next time apply a paint sealant, wait 12 hours for it to cure, then add a coat of wax:
