1996 ZX300 Paint Correction
This car is for sale with only about 30K on the odo. Several panels have been repainted.
The exterior took about 9.5 hours. As you can see I didn't have a lot of space but I had a very pleasant time working on this paint.
Here are the only whole car pictures before I started.
The avarage condition of the paint looked like this

The paint correction looks great. I like how much more color that you were able to bring out.
Interior looks good too. The only suggestion that I can make is to brush the carpets and the, I will use "velour," interior fabrics in one direction. I like to use something like my horsehair interior brush to make it all uniform. That way it looks really consistent, rather than drawing your attention.
Looks like a great turn around. Especially the rear deck lid. Man, those scratches looked gnarly.

The minute the car was done it was driven inside. Then moved some more. At this point I was able to take the after interior pictures. I hope that answers some things.
