hey guys, ive had my paint buffed out and when i say that i mean high speed buffed, not an orbital, me and my co-worker did it. im happy with the results, cant count how many times people ask me where i got my car painted at..haha..

 

Sweet!!!

 

looks awesome, I wish I could've just done that with my car but instead next week its going in for paint and 2300 CDN later hopefully it will look awesome and turn heads once again...

 

DAMN!!!! Nice!!!

 

nice work man, thats damn shiney!

 

yeah the colors look diff in some of the pics sorry bout that one

 

great job!!!

 

Is it bad to wax a car that's got oxidation marks on it? Will it help any?

that is really nice. what type of wax did u use and what brand?

 

wow

 

damn bro that **** is hella clean...........you have come a long *** way from the nova hahaha....... keep up the clean grown *** man look!!! doesnt look like a 19 yo owns it fo sho

 

Very nice!

 

hey man...looking good...i have an 84 gsl that looks about the same

i really wish some place online sold remade front valences for cheap...seems like they are ALWAYS torn to hell...

 

Man that looks awesome. Goes to show its all about the right stuff.

 

That looks sweet. Just need to fix the front lip.

 

I wish mine looked that good.

 

no its not bad to wax what you have, but it wont help at all, just spend the 100 bucks and get it buffed, imo i think its worth it.

 

What do you mean get it buffed? Do body shops do heavy buffing like that? Will it take out oxidation?

wow thats bad^ it wont totaly get rid of it but it will help..

 

I'll just wait on the paint job, all I'm doing is paying for supplies, buddy owes me a big favor! :P $300

Nice paint, and the best 1st gen color too! One of my GSLs has a new paint job, brown metallic like the original, but not nearly as nice as the other two that have their original paint.

 

For mild oxidation I've had excellent luck with McGuirer's paint cleaner. Really brings out the shine. But that pic looks pretty severe, not sure if it would help that much. Maybe a strong rubbing compound or something...

 

3M makes some great polishing compounds that really help with oxidation and scrathes. I've used them on my GSL-SE as well.

 

wow! that SE is soo clean. Hopefully i can get mine to look like that soon, but first i need a engine rebuild

 

They looked so nice above, that I had to go out today and polish mine :-)





Some more if interested :-)
