After inspecting the car for any problems that may need correction, the fenders, hood, and other components are removed.

Body work being done and sprayed with a layer of poly

Next any necessary body work can be done and the body, fenders and hood are sprayed with a layer of poly. That creates an even surface.

Then it is covered in guide coat so it can be sanded to a smooth finish before it is painted.
