I'll warn you now, there are quite a bit of pictures!
Yet another Evo has made it's way into my garage this month, this one needing just as much help as the others, but dare I say this is the best looking one I've worked on thus far. No offense to the other guys! This is a full exterior detail on another example of Mitsubishi's quality paint department, needless to say, this great looking Evo became even more so.
I can't take full credit for this job though, I called in the help of my buddy Ryan (Seven on TST) from Allentown as I was quite in need. Sometimes you just need another buffer going at the same time! To be honest, without Ryan's help, I'd probably be still working on it haha! Enough of my babble, on to the good stuff!
Process:
Menzerna PowerGloss - yellow - front end
Menzerna PowerFinish - Orange
Menzerna SuperFinish - Green
Blackfire Wet Diamond Sealant - Blue
Vehicle as it arrived, did say he was bringing it dirty haha
Wheels Before
Wheels After
After a full wash/degrease and clay bar, once dry, inspected the paint under the spotlights to find similar paint damage as the previous Tarmac Black Evo with 609hp.
As you can see, the paint was in desperate need of correction. The following photos are some progress shots, 50/50s, like night and day.
