Polish completed and camping we went

Well I brought the baby home this week and took her camping. Look at my album to see the completed project. We had a blast this weekend a couple people stopped anf mouths dropped when I said she was 32 years old.

JP,

What polishing method did you use? And how long did it take?

The technic of hard work
I used a cyclo when it was all said and done with met-al and blue magic.

It took over 120 hours and more when it was clearcoated and pin striped. The clear actually dulled it a bit. I am still happy with the way it turned out.

JPAIRSTREAM,
That's one "good looking" A/S~!
Nice work~
Question~
Where did you have it clearcoated?
If you did the clearcoating, what did you use?
ciao
