Progress Thread “Rising from Ashes 4” 93 Notchback build

[95steedamustang]

What a great color, too bad every new car is just white, beige or black it seems.

I agree with you and thanks. I’m gonna be doing several Fox bodies in more tropical colors since I’m still stuck in the 90s anyway so stay tuned.

For those who wanted pics of the freshly painted calypso/custom color notchback
Is is calypso?

Or is it blue or teal? Lol! The K&K flop

Your paint right out of the gun is what most people strive for after cut and buff.

Little polishing

It’s amazing what these can look like when you actually straighten them before you paint them

It’s not a Focbody unless you have waves in the bumper cover…sacrilege. Your blasphemous body work has to go!

I’m just jealous the cover on my coupe isn’t that straight.

Cut and buff time

The trunk looks awesome, but that door pic.... DAMN!

Glass time. Only Carlite for my builds. Buffed the heck out of the rear glass

Beauty is in the details. Was just out adjusting my hatch striker, my glass has seen better days

Looking good man!

What do you use to polish the glass? Same as paint?

 

[General karthief]

Builders sand and mayonnaise

I have a glass polishing kit. My father in law retired from a glass manufactor and gave it to me. The pads are harder than you would use on paint.

Is there some Cerium Oxide in the kit too?
