Pictures from Thursday Night Open Garage - April 29th, 2010
Well, that was a fun night - and busy too!
Dick brought in his always perfect Escalade EXT and as usual we argued about what color it is.......
Is it blue....
....or is it green.....
....or is it both?
Brian brought in a 4th Gen Camaro that, um, needed a little help.
We also got to teach Jeff how to correct some issues on his Chevy pickup. He had waxed it, but there were still swirls, water spots and some bird dropping etchings.
After showing Jeff the fine points of G110v2 use he went at it, and got some great results!
Jeff's truck has a roll up vinyl tonneau cover that was looking a bit tired, so we broke out the Ultimate Protectant, but that's a lot real estate to cover. Hmmm..... how best to apply a product to large expanse of flat surface? The G110v2, of course!
Back to Brian's Camaro, and the A-Team starts to evaluate the finish and devise a plan of attack.
Then the real work begins.
Say "hi!"
Here's a carbon fiber hood with a light silver top coat that needed a little TLC.
While all this went on in the garage there was plenty of activity outside as well.
Andy brought in his Nissan Sentra coupe that is fully track prepped. The headlights needed some cleaning up so we opened up a Headlight Restoration Kit, grabbed a drill and went to town on these nasty things. No sanding at all here, just PlastX and the wool pad from the kit.

You're probably wondering how Brian's Camaro came out. Quite nicely, thank you very much!
And here's the A-Team that took the Camaro from trashed to treasured in under 5 hours; Jesse, Paul, Bob and Brian. Awesome work, guys!!
The full moon was rising..... time to close down and head home.
We owe a huge THANK YOU!! to Andy (bmrfan) for all his help last night, including his work behind the camera. Of course a similar thanks to the Camaro A-Team and everyone else who came out for the evening.
