It took me about three hours to do this front quarter. It makes a huge difference and gives it a mirror finish. It took about 2 hours just to do the door. I may have bit off more than I can chew, but for some lame reason, I feel like I need to do this. The pro’s charge WAY to much to do this.br /There’s something kind of relaxing about labor in standing there buffing this thing for hours… sort of takes your mind off things. I’ll take some more pics when it’s done. I think it’s going to take about 50 hours to complete the buffing. It’s a process with wool pads and three different kinds of metal polish, then later a wax sealant. I love how the vintage airstreams buff up to a mirror finish. They stopped doing this mirror finish on Airstreams, it’s more of a dull silver finish now.br /I don’t know if you are even interested in my Airstream project, but I thought some of you might be. There are some plans to do some updates inside soon as well. I’ll keep you posted.div style=’clear:both; text-align:CENTER’a href=’http://picasa.google.com/blogger/’ target=’ext’img src=’http://photos1.blogger.com/pbp.gif’ alt=’Posted by Picasa’ style=’border: 0px none ; padding: 0px; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: initial; -moz-background-origin: initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: initial;’ align=’middle’ border=’0′ //a/div
