Hey guys! I haven't posted here much but thought I better start before I get into trouble with Steve!:smt062

This is a very sweet '56 Chevy that turned out pretty nice for only having 4hrs and let me tell there is a lot of surface here!

I started out with a thorough wash and clay. I didn't have the time to really get down and dirty with it so I opted for the blk pad with Poorboys Pro Polish to start things off. I also added PP2 in a few areas to get some of the marring that I couldn't quite get with just PP. Wow that really made a nice turnaround. I didn't expect anything less from PP though. I then pulled out another blk pad and hit it with BH glaze. I also hit the wheels real quick with PP2 and Mothers ball. I topped it all off with a coat of Natty's and this thing lit of FIRE!!!

I had some really good exposure at out local car show yesterday and today from it. Between our three cars and this one I really made a good step forward in the hot rod/muscle car community.

I used my 7424 with blk pads. This is a base clear car that hadn't been waxed in a few years and has seen it's fair share of 'California Dusting'. He was very pleased. I have a few hot rodders now wanting me to do their stuff. Good deal!

Looks awesome.. Im thinking the lighting inside the garage was just bad thats why it looked so dull??.. or it had a nice layer of dust on it.. Either way it looks awesome now!
