How to maintain and preserve a perfect black paint job on a classic car?
My Dad will have finished painting my 1964 EH Holden by next weekend. He has painted it black, and we’ve kept the roof white.
I’m after some advice on how best to preserve the paint job. Car covers, products that protect the paint while you’re driving, best washes/sponges/cloths etc, any advice at all from people who have had black cars or have classic cars.
wait at least 30 days until the paint cures out totally (or the shop who painted it says you can wax it. putting a good coat of wax is your best defense a car cover helps by keeping dust off and helps a lot because sun is the big butt kicker when it comes to damaging paint. Dark colors are much harder to keep clean. pick a day every other week to wash it, and use a brushless car wash or hand wash.
It is difficult to keep a paint job looking perfect for years, mainly you will learn how to do touch ups, you can fill i chips and wet sand smooth and keep it looking good, If you touch up, or pay a shop to touch up rock chips once a year the car will look good for a long time. Stuff happens, get over it now, there are people who scratch nice cars because they are cracked in the head, dont lose it in the parking lot if someone dings your baby, accidents happen, and if some hot babe dings it by accident,ask her on a date. and never let some idiot with no car, drive your car ok?

The Cars $2.36 American art-rock was often stilted and lacking in humor until the New Wave arrived. Liberated by the influence of the Velvet Underground, Roxy Music and punk-era fellow travelers like Blondie and Suicide, the Cars methodically linked hookiness (enough to produce three hit singles and several other FM favorites from this debut album) and at least one raised eyebrow. The result still plays as a roc… |
