Rejuvenating the respray paint from the early '90s on the '71T. Clean, wet sand to 1500p, polish with 4 step process from Griot's along with an orbital. Happy with results to date. Completed engine lid, top, bonnet, and L front fender:
















Have the Sugar Scoop apart and want to paint the plastic ring that surrounds the headlight. Looking for the recommendation for this paint. Thank you!

Thank you.

Final step for my cars is Meguiar's NXT Generation Polymer Sealant. Open to use other product here but with this product, can do the entire car then buff off. Very little residue to deal with post polishing process.

DJ.
