Hello All,

Had a 91 Legend which was dead on arrival. I was tasked to bring back the leather, carpet, vinyl, paint. I was even asked to cover up a 12 inch long scratch along one of the lower panels.

See if you could tell me which panel.

The interior line up:
Leather: Woolite 6:1 mix and 0000 steel wool

Plastic pieces: Interior Express cleaner & Steel Wool

Carpet: Oxy Mix, scrub brush and lots of elbow grease and vacuumed with shop vac

Conditioned leather with Pearl Gloss

Exterior: SSR1, 2, 2.5, PP, Mequiars Gold Class Wax

Rotary, PC and 8 Hrs of Time
 
This was one of those jobs where ou say to yourself, there has got to be a easier way to make a living. But after I was done and had a nice cold adult beverage and the owner came back flabbergasted, I wiped the sweat of my brow and was glad I'm doing something I enjoy doing for a living.

Thanks DC for being a place where we can share!
 
As a Legend enthusiast, I thank you for bringing that Legend back from the dead. :cool

Good work.
 
You can get 0000 (Usually spoken as "four-oh") at department and hardware stores. Sometimes they're listed as Course (0) , Medium (00), fine (000), and Very (or Super) Fine (0000).
 
Thre steel wool can be purchased at HD or WM or paint supply store. I use it on many surfaces, wheels, leather, and dashes. It works really well on those areas on the doors where the scuff marks tend to congregate.

Thanks for the compliments.
