I just bought this car last friday night, and the first thing that it needed was to meet the Porter Cable. Sorry no before pictures but it had lots of swirls and some small scratches as the paint job is around 10 years old.



Here was my process



wash



clay bar



50/50 mix OP & OC by PC with cutting pad



OP by PC with polishing pad



PB PwC Blue by PC with finishing pad



RMG by PC with finishing pad



2 coats Natty Blue by hand

Boy, I haven't seen one of them in ages...brings back memories of seeing MGB's, Spitfires, TR-7's, X1/9's, and Stags driving around. Oops, and Fiat 124 Spyders!
 
:bow Beautiful car! 100 years from now, that will still be a great looking car. :)



The paint looks superb, really deep and dark.
 
Beautiful car! I always wanted a TR-6, had a Fiat Spyder way back but they suffered from a weak chassis. The TR-6 has a look like no other. I've always liked the proportion of wheels/tires to the rest of the car.
