I have been working of detailing Mike's new OCC...I got most of it done these past 2 days. I still need to put another coat of polish on it and then wax it after delivery tomorrow.

Here are some pics to share since we all like to see a wagon spruced up!! I love bringing the paint back to life Smile

I ran out of daylight, so I used some headlights. I also did not polish it out yet..so you can see a minor swirl or two. I will finish it up in VA tomorrow.

Amazing what the combination of correct tools, talent and chemicals can do to neglected paint, isn't it?

LOL!! lol!

Yeah, I know...I am just really anal about gettin compound in cracks and the jambs. I had to do some wet sanding so it did get a little messy.

You know the feeling Robert...it is a high for me to bring back paint. I only wish Mike could have seen his wagon before all the work was done.

Thanks! It did help that the wagon only has 68K on it. Lots of good paint still Smile

Well, waiting for Mike to show up. Wagon is all done...if he doesn't show soon...I might snatch those Oz wheels Suspect

Thanks again Chris! Unfortunately there's some checking on the hood and roof which keep the paint from looking it's best. But the car looks amazing.

Anyone have a TBI red cargo cover laying around? Wink
