1971 Cutlass Ep 19: Fixing my Home Paint Job!

Описание: This video documents wet sanding and buffing the paint job on my 1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass S that I painted in my home garage a few months ago. There was a lot of dirt in the tops of the fenders and the roof. There were some major runs and sags in the clear coat. With the guidance of Gregg the painter, I was able to wet sand and buff the paint to a pretty nice shine!
