Good evening John,


I can understand your request. High-gloss cars are wedding cars, but not old-timers.



My car should be painted with one-component resin paint and a little bit of matting included. The painter did that but in an other way and sprayed a layer of clear coat over it. It was a great finish with a lot of deep gloss but not appropriate for my classic car. (We had some very bad argument because I didn't pay for everything.)



At home I sanded the whole clear coat with the finest 4000 wet sandpaper. (All friends said you're plemplem.) Then polish the matt paint to a shine with a polishing machine.

Now the car paint looks like the original nitro paint that has been lovingly cared for over the decades.
