    This is the hood of my 97 Saab 9000 Turbo. I spent about 2 hours on it today to get the results you see.

    1-2 passes with IP on a woolpad
    1 pass with IP on a cutting pad
    1 pass with SSR1 on a cutting pad
    2 passes with SSR1 on a polishing pad
    1 pass of AIO with a surbuf pad
    topped with Stoner Max Bead

    About half the hood got some hand treatment with PP too.

    Now if I can get the rest of the car looking that good!!!

    Well I did skip a minor detail didn`t I?? I used a PC. The thought of me holding a rotary is pretty scary!!

    Thanks Mike :jump - it`s actually dark blue but there is nothing in those shots to give the color away.

    Didn`t get to work on the rest of the car today.

    That last shot is "calendar worthy"!!! .

    Very nice work. You`re inspiring me to start tackling my neglected black beast. I just need some of that GA weather now. :whine

    Can`t wait to see the rest of the Saab. Is it clear coated? A friend of mine said Saab never clearcoats Black (I know you said it was blue, but it is a beautiful dark blue)
    Don`t cry honey. I wasn`t polishing the car again. I swear! :naughty

    Thanks for the compliments.

    It is clear coat. It`s also metallic but it takes the perfect lighting to see the flakes. I`m hoping that Wolfgang will bring it out a bit when I`m all done. Let`s see at one panel at a time with my upcoming schedule - that should be about July!!
