First Mini Van 2000 MPV

This was my 6th full on exterior restoration. It seems everyons car that I know is in terrible shape! I cann't wait to get a car that needs little work. It took me over 6 hours to get the paint new looking again. But the results are well worth it. I want to thank all of you for the great stuff I have and am continuing to learn.

Wow! You really brought back some great gloss to this one! The color also looks so much deeper than before! :up

 

[zippymbr]

Thanks, their reply was a big thankyou, and that it did not look this good when we bought it!

 

[Porkanbeans]

Did you pull an all-nighter detail?



That's a great job you did there. Even with the before pics taken at night with a flash, I can still recognize a significant improvement in gloss, depth, and restoration of the color. I'm sure that red was pretty faded. And to add the fact that it's a minivan to all that work, you get an A+ from me for bravery and a job well done :xyxthumbs .

I worked on it from about 9 to 1 friday and sat night. Maybe next time I might get paid. But I do not mind, I am still learning techniques and products.

Heh heh, I don't see many MPV pics here Nice job, and you did it in good time too :xyxthumbs It takes me a *LOT* longer than that to do ours.
