The Black Pearl Detail......


Chris@Adams

Question

Out at the TRJ show this weekend I had a awesome opportunity to machine polish The Black Pearl....

This beauty was hand made by Rick Dore of  the tv show The Lords of the Car Hoards.

The car belongs to James Hetfield of Metallica. 

So I tackled it with my Cyclo polisher using the Orange MF pad & PCP first then followed up with White foam pads and PFP. The car turned out great and my new friend Rick was very happy to say the least.

Tried to capture some of the scratches in the pics..... they showed up better in person.

Wow, so cool that you had this opportunity. 

 

It's surprising to see such a car in such desperate need of polishing. Then again, maybe it shouldn't be surprising. It probably has been wiped down a coupe hundred times with a duster, not to mention touched and drooled on by people all over the country.
