Figured I would just do a two in one thread for these. I kind of lost half the pictures of the silver benz, so I did not think it was worth its own thread. lol
Anyways, two more for Buds Benz. Each got the same amount of work done...but boy was the black one a pita.
First the '71 280SEL...
Wanted to bring the gloss back too the paint as it was starting to show signs of oxidizing, which luckily the paint was still in decent shape so it corrected nicely. Though, wet sanding the roof, hood and trunk would not have hurt either. Had some pretty serious orange peel on the horizontal surfaces.
Before:
Condition of the paint prior to any work done...
After washing and claying the car, I worked on a test area too see what the outcome would take.
The paint before...
Now the test area...
After everything was done, it was too late to get shots last night so just some interior shots...
Before Buds came to pick the car up, got some outside shots when the sun finally popped out.
