Machine buffer and G3 time today for SteveW's Turbo Corsa...

Firstly, we were so impressed with the paint work we all had a group wank over the bonnet...



I am very impressed with the work, can't wait until we get round to doing mine!







Steve and I then popped her all back together again...




Now time for some piss taking pictures really. I don't think I have seen a finish like this before in my life! I'm so impressed with it!

O/S rear quater close ups:










Err, sorry for all the pictures

There are more in my garage

Yea, you can give a car a buff to get the original shine back, though to get it this shiney you have to have a re-spray with the right paint and by the right painter.

There was a small ammount of dust in the paint. Though the 'shop is really dirty now and needs a proper clean out, which is happening as soon as Steve's car goes home.

We hung plastic on the wall once, but I don't think that helped much.

would of made it worse i would of thought as the dust sticks to the wall and clings on to that more than on the plastic so it will float about with the plastic up i would say!
