The Hotness Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I bought a used black car, the paint is trashed, and in serious need of correction! but is shiny.. It has orange peel from a few resprays, sanding marks from 1000 grit, and more swirls/spider webs then anybody with a black car should ever have. I can post more pics of specific areas if need be, or if anybody in the detail biz is in the LA area can look at it I would be so happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Rich Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 This is 7 year old paint with nothing but Adam's products. And all by hand. You can't ask for more. It's the best thing you can do for your car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 The Hotness Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 Looks very good! Honestly I am scared to show anyone my car.. it's awful! It is no where near "clean", paint chipping off wheels, dings, hints of old chrome. It needs help bad. In Washington it wasn't bad, cause it rained all the time and it's a 20 foot car (looks good from 20 feet.) But put her under this California sun and.. FLAWS! Ahh.

Question
The Hotness
