What was I Thinking - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

I've been sitting around lately, doing nothing, and decided it's time to sand and buff my 95 ZR-1. What was I thinking?

I've tackled this once before but it was long enough ago that I forgot just how much work it is. My other car had been repainted so I knew it had extra clear coat on it.

This is Factory Original Black, of all colors, with clear.

I've been told the factory used minimal clear coat. This makes sanding somewhat tedious to say the least.

I'm using 2500 grit paper with a flat rubber sanding block and blue foam pad.
So far I have about 40 hours work in it and both doors, rear fenders and the back bumper have been completed.

This is me taking a picture of the passenger door with my reflection leaning against my other car.

I'll show pictures of the finished product if the Good Lord lets me live long enough to finish.
