Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
I have been buffing a little today and did the first type compound on the tailgate, bedside, and half of a rear door. It is coming out really well.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Man, it would be nice to have an index to search the portions of your build.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
I see your beast is outgrowing your shop also!! Time to get that trim on and get it out of the garage.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Plodding through. I think maybe I am one/eighth of the way finished with buffing. Here are the 2 products I am using. The first one with a wool pad gets out the 1500 grit marks and the second one (black bottle) with a foam pad gets out the ghosting marks left from the first compound. I cut with the white stuff about 3 times with the lightest pressure on the last pass. I have only done a spot with the black foam pad stuff, so no tips on that yet.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Drew-
My paint guy swears by these same 3m products. I have also been using them for years since he was the one that taught me how to buff out a car. The cost of these materials it pretty decent as well.. Looking good my man!! Marc

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Little tip, Drew... While not technically necessary, I like to wipe down between stages with a soapy rag. Also, knock your speed down from full while cutting the scratch out, to about 2/3 on the mid-cut, to about 1/3 on the final cut. You don't need a lot of the later stuff. A dab on the pad gets 'er done, and makes a lot less mess. Meguiars soft pads seem to help with swirls. Have fun!

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Saturday night picture time! Even though it's actually Sunday morning.
I haven't even finished buffing yet, but I couldn't stand it any longer. I put together a fender to have a look. Aired out of course. I'm diggin it, but the rest will have to wait.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
I looked at the first page and then just skipped to the end because I'm not into burbs.
That's a nice crew cab, i thought 1973 was the first year, I guess Gm made a few 72's? |
