Care of original paint (mid 60's Laquer)

[cook_dw]

Granted my 67 isnt original paint but I plan to use a similar process on my original paint 68 within the next few months..

So yesterday I bought a new tool/toy and gave it a try last night to see how well it would do.. The before pic you can see some fine scratches on the deck lid. So I picked up a DA polisher from Harbor Freight and all 3 pads. After cleaning the surface; I used Meguiar's Scratch 2.0 then back over it with #7. I can say I am very pleased with the polisher and cant wait to finish the entire car.. If any of you have been like me and always hand polished or waxed your car then go out and get this polisher and you will not be sorry.. I also plan to use this on the original paint 68 within the next few months so I will add that to this thread at that time.
