      “I could have used a pressure washer, which is the fastest way to clean, but I chose to wash the car by hand to avoid damaging it. The car has been sitting for 35 years, and I wanted to be more careful and avoid blowing out the old rubber seals or damaging the paint.”I guess you didn't watch the video where I talk about owning a used car lot and cleaning thousands of cars. The brushes were washed and the car was rinsed completely with only water, then wiped off by hand while checking for grit. Thanks for the comment.

      Mine was a 1964 Impala OG 283 with a Power Glide. When I was 15 I had saved up $857 dollars and a friend told me he saw a Red 64 Impala in the ally of three hundred block of 17th Ave in Longview Washington. My grandpa and I went to go look at it. We couldn't find it where my friend said so we kept searching up and down every ally from the two hundred block all the way to the 500 block. Found a Blue 64 guy didn't really want to sell it but I would take no for an answer or he saw how Bad I Really wanted it so he says well the lowest I would let it go for is a Grand... Like I said earlier I had $857.00 that I had saved up... He said sorry man. I can't go lower than a Grand!!! I was Super Bummed! Seeing this my Beloved Ol Paw Said I'll pay the difference if you can take a check! The Deal was Done and This Story goes along with Sooo Many Wonderful Memories of My Amazing Perfect Amazing Grandfather!!! I Miss You Sooo Much Paw! Thank You For Making My Dreams Come True. Love Always Your LiL Helper!

    Just a little suggestion, never use dish washing detergent on auto paint. Good auto washing liquid will remove the dirt. to remove the discoloration, rubbing and polishing compound will reserve the paint's integrity.
    then finish off with a good sealer and wax. reserve the paint the most you can short of painting.
    Dish soap will degrade the paint more than letting it go.
    just a little I have learned through the years from auto painting.

    I would use a fine compound to clean paint finish. We don’t know what paint was used. It may be acrylic lacquer.
    I would not recommend sandpaper not even ultrafine make love to it with fine rubbing compound and glaze/wax Dupont number seven and kit paste wax was always my go to
    You all are doing a remarkable job. I absolutely love it.
