This was my project from Monday. The customer purchased the car used and was looking to have it brought back to "new" standards. It was apparent that this car had never been garaged, and was in fact severely neglected. Both the front and rear bumpers had severe oxidation, and the beginnings of clearcoat failure was rampant on the hood. This car required a lot of wetsanding including the entire hood to get out the oxidation! Hope you enjoy!

I finished the car around 9 PM, so please excuse the lack of adequate afters.
