Stripes and Buff
I changed my stripes a little from the norm. I went with 1.40" width tape for the center instead of 1". On the trunk I started at the roll bar 9-1/2" wide and tapered to 8-1/2" at the end of the trunk, then to 8-1/4" at the bottom of the car. (The dimensions include the bright red stripe also.) on the hood I started at the dash 9-1/2" wide and tapered to 8" at the radiator opening, then just blended the taper to the bottom. I prefer a little wider stripe. The color is just a medium grey mettalic nothing special, I pointed to the one I liked.
The buffing was done with Meguiar's. Picked it up at autozone. The bottles explain which one to use. I didn't have any heavy oxidation or swirls or scratches, so I used the mirror glaze. Then waxed with the Meguiars wax. The buffer was a 10" terry pad with a slow speed. The waxed with a 10" orbital.
Thanks so much for the comments, It makes me proud of my car, I know it's not a Foose but I'm so happy with it.
