HZ 1 Tonner Summernats Detail
My next door neighbour Mark's project car is finally built and ready for the Summernats.
I offered to give it a bit of love, on its 13 year old paint job, before he went postal down in Canberra.
Feast your eyes on a LS2 powered burnout monster lol.
Mark and beer
Off to load in the car trailer
May have been a bit excited

Very nice mate
What did you end up doing on it?
The Velociraptor
It was supposed to be a simple light correction.
What I didnt realise until I started claying the paint, was that it had overspray all over it, and a shit load of swirls and holograms
The job turned into a 4 stage heavy correction, which I managed to do in 1.5 days.
Needless to say I am completely knackered lol.

In need of "Driver Mod"
you clearly have a lot of time on your hands...
The Velociraptor
Not as much as I did lol
Forum Staff
Yeah to be expected. Old cars and also single stage paint are the two biggest pad killers. At least that one looked like it wasn't single stage.I killed at least 4 pads on that car
Hope you were at least able to recoup some of your costs though
How are your arms?
