Stainless steel parts full refurbishing
#1
I bought my car in really bad shape, scratched, dents everywhere.
So I started to renovate and repair the stainless steel panels.
This is how I got the car.

After we removed the panels, we cleaned them and removed the dents.

We have the technology and the knowledge, so we can fix any panels, parts.
So if somebody has something to fix, just let us know.
Unfortunately I will not have my car ready until Belfast, but I might fly there.

very well done, it's amazing what S/steel can put up with and still come back looking as good as new (if you know what your doing) keep up the good work.

We are working for 2 days now on this left side of the hood.
So far was brushed 100x, and it's still not 100%.
I don't have yet new photos, but soon it will be ready I will post it.
