    Low mileage red Z06 gets some correction

    I did a 2 step correction about 3 years ago on this car. At the time it only had 2200 miles. The last couple years have been a little harder on it as its now a daily driver (a massively fun one). At 14,500 miles its obviously not a long commute, but it just doesn`t get the care it did as the weekend toy.

    With both my customer and myself having a very busy schedule, setting a date for it was a little bit of a challenge. When we finally did and I saw the condition, I knew it was due for another 2 step correction, but neither of us had more than 1 day to work on it. So a long 1 step correction was chosen. I spent extra time working the polish as long as possible to get as much correction as possible. At the end of the day about 80-85% correction was achieved leaving mostly just the deep scratches and very few remaining swirls. The customer was a little worried 1 step wouldn`t do enough, but in 3 years I`d become much more efficient and brought it just about right back to where it was last time and he was quite pleased with the result.

    Looks awesome Jeff! If you don`t mind me asking, what polish did you use as a one-step? And while you`re at it, do you have plans to fix that gray Mustang too?

    Thanks Mike! I used Menzerna SIP on lc orange.

    I did the mustang 3 years ago with the Z, and it stayed in the garage for the first year, then it went back outside and looks like that again....single stage black. The mustang is low on his priority list. Though it is a quick car....heads/cam/exhaust/supercharger.

    Sounds like a beast! Interesting about SIP, I need to get some and learn how to use it. Apparently PO203s is being phased out...

    I like SIP, I use it often and it`s always worked well for me. You did a great job on this car.
