1991 Mazda, Miata (Paint Refinishing)

A very special thanks to Charles and Marc.

I say in the video that this is a 1981 when I meant to say its a 1991.

Before I did anything, I went around the whole vehicle repairing the paint damage that I could.

What I did here was do a four step paint restoration to this 91 Miata which entailed me clay barring the whole vehicle including the windows.
I like to use Clay Magic (medium) because I have found that this product has better pick up than Mothers or Meguires by far. You are lucky if you can even pick up half of the fall out using these products. Personnally, I would stay away from these.

Next, I compounded out the paint removing any of the minor scratches as well as the oxidation build up and scuffs. I use the Meguires Diamond Cut to do this. I dont use the new product that Meguires put out to replace this.
First of all, I can do just about anything using the Diamond Cut and second of all, I pay about $28.00 a gallon for the Diamond Cut. A big difference in cost.

Next, I polished out the paint extentsivly removing all of the swirles from the paint refining it to perfection.
I use an Ardex product called Stereo Glaze #2. I really like this product with the added brighteners that they have engineered into the product. It really works.
Just look at the brillance of the Miata.

Next, I applied the clear coat sealer to protect the paint from fall out and the harmful elements that like to stick to the clear coat and tear it down.
Again, I like to use an Ardex product called Clear Coat Sealer #9200.
To be honest with you, I have used many products for this and this is by far the best sealer I have used.

I also detailed the engine to specs as well as detailing the whole inside shampooing and deep cleaning the seats.

When it was all said and done, my craftsmanship far out succeded Charles and Marcs expectations. They were absolutly thrilled with the job.

Remember that I am disabled and handicapped with Parkinsons Diease and this is very difficult for me to do but its all I know.

I hope everyone likes the video.
