Default Re: Roof Deuce Restoration

The "GM" button decals were all in excellent condition. The metal buckles just needed a good cleaning up and they were good as new. As far as the plastic buckle covers, I took Ed's (Enio45) advice and I started with 1500 grit wet sanding and finished with 2000. I inverted my buffer with wool pad on my vise and used water and 3M Finesse to buff out the buckle covers. This process took about 4 passes (ensuring the pad remains moist) to bring it to this shine...
