  • In this video I take on our 1984 Porsche 944 that was painted in a carport with heavy machinery paint. A match made in heaven? I would have to agree. This paint came with some absolutely insane texture so I decided to wet sand it in hopes to level it out a little bit and achieve better clarity. I started with 2000 grit hard block, followed by 3000 grit soft block. The paintwork was then cut and polished, I didn't remove as much texture as I would have liked but with further knowledge of the paint I can now say a bunch of the texture was retained in the base-coat. Over all the car went through a massive transformation and I'm happy with how it looks! Next ill tackle the interior and wheels. I hope you guys enjoy!

    Finally a car guy that loves these truly pieces of art cars. The body lines, the interiors, everything is for the experience of the drive and the driver. Just turned 32 and my craving for an 87 alpine white 944T is at its all time high. The love for this car has outlasted every car I’ve had previously. Camaro,350z, wrx, sti , all were fun but none have me the goosebumps like this car does… gotta bite the bullet

    Definitely the most criminally underrated detailing channel on CZcams, it might take a while longer for the word to eventually get around but I have no doubt in my mind that this channel is destined for CZcams greatness with a couple of million loyal subscribers all hanging out to see what you come up with next..
    Special mention has to go to the most imaginative and original camera angles on CZcams utterly brilliant work for any content provider but even more so for automotive detailing channel.
    The only thing you might consider in future productions is changing up the music styles and tempo especially for the longer videos but it's all personal preference I guess..
    The shot of the smartphone Playlist where you scroll and select a track before putting headphones on, I fully expected the music to change at the exact moment your finger tapped the screen 😉👌

    The most wet sanding I've done was sanding down touch up paint spots on my car... that's enough for me! Something like this, I couldn't imagine doing. Credit where credit is due... this is awesome! Once I get settled into the Air Force, hopefully I'll be near Cambridge, England, I'll get a cafe racer bike (probably a Royal Enfield Continental GT) and make some videos for YT about it.

    Damn, you have a dreamshop now bro. Old viewer here, haven't stopped by in a while plus I changed my account's name to have more privacy, my PFP is still the same though, water beads at or exceeding 120* on my daily's trunk lid :) Edit: Finished the video now, excellent work my friend. I did the same with my 88' rio red Honda CRX Si after having left it abandoned in an abandoned house's garage for like 2 years. That place was full of debris and the ceiling putty and the concrete was falling apart, couldn't clay out all of it, there's one area where there's still a piece of putty bonded to the paint, as it penetrated it very deeply. Needless to say after washing, claying then sanding the whole car down with 3k and then polishing it, it came out absolutely stunning. She still looks amazing to this day and beads water like crazy. I coated her over 2 yrs ago and the beads are still craazy. I could send you pics of the transformation and some bead shots if you like :P
