This black Lorinser S500 Benz should be fun

040 black is so soft, it should polish out easily.

I am asking because I am getting a brand new black car next week

Black paint is a part time job. Seriously.





=================



Bryan-looking good so far, can't wait to see the finished pictures. How much time do you think you will end up putting into this car?

John, As deep as the defects are, nothing is easy yet.

You're absolutely right nothing is EASY when it comes to black paint. The results are looking great though. Good job.

My PTG tells me that I have some repainted panels coming up, so just when you think you have it figured out, they change the questions. :xyxthumbs

One of my overhead 8' fluorescent bulbs went out yesterday, so I went to HD (they take back the old ones as well) and picked up 4 new ones. They seem to have a blue tint to them but they are brighter then the old bulbs.



Hood before:

Trizact 1500:

Trizact 3000:

3m ECC edge yellow wool

P1500 edge green wool

SIP green german ccs foam

Looking great Bryan!

 

[gmblack3]

Looking great Bryan!

Thanks Rydawg!!



Went back and tried to polish without airsanding. It's just not going to get it done on the hood.



So 1500/3000 trizact again:

I had a few stubborn pigtails so I added a heavier compound to the process:



Strada 1000 black edge wool

3m ECC edge yellow wool

P1500 edge green wool

SIP green german ccs foam



Still only getting .10 mil or less reduction in clearcoat.

 

[maesal]

Wow, I need the Trizact 1500 !!

Great work !!

 

[Eisen Hulk]

Damn!!! Those last pics look great. Can't wait to see the finished product!

Thanks! Sometimes you can find some great deals on ebay for them. These are used with an air sander.
