Helping a neglected '72 Skylark

[Smokey]

Don't know if its true today anymore but we had 3M come into the shop back in 94. They taught us back to do the heavy cutting with a wool pad and then a black waffle with cutting to help melt it back. Then do the steps up from there. It also helped to wash the car between each step also.

Sad thing is that I would go through 5-6 steps to do a dead nuts nice black job. Here in MN we would have to have the shop around 30-40% humidity to make hand glaze work like it was suppose to. If I was at a show, it would take 3 times longer to hand glaze the car out. I loved black and had everything black up until 5 years ago.

I'm just trying to learn how to make it easier for all of us...or no more black cars. Cream is looking alot better each day!

Now I hear they have Trizac(sp?) process to remove swirle marks and such.
