I was able to buff the car using swirl removing finishing compound. It really shines now, I guess the two weeks of sanding was worth it. I still have an intense dislike for it though.

Yippee! Today is shiny day, started the buffing process. Tomorrow I will do the polishing with the finer grit and softer foam pad.

Hooray!! All the hand color sanding is done, finally! Next is buffing and polishing then I can start re assembly.

I hate to keep beating a dead horse by posting what seems like the same picture every time but I have been busy much of this week color sanding by hand. Great fun! I really love sanding. I only have the rest of this side to do, the front and the entire other side. My new sanding block and a fresh supply of 1000 grit wet or dry paper came in todays mail, so onward and upward.

All natural wet sanding---in the rain. Sucks!

Still at it, the wet color sanding commenced today. All the cream color except the rocker panels is done. I'm taking it an area at a time as I get time off from Corvair work.
