I usually run a FULL EXTERIOR DETAIL (when i mean full exterior detail, i mean colorsanding/buffing) for around 130 bucks or so for a miata.
I will do pretty much all in my power to make your paint look the way you want. If the clear is dead, there would not be much i could do...sorry.
However, if you are doubtful...hit me up on AIM at TRD0524, or shoot me a PM with some pics of your paint. I would be more than happy to tell you whatever you need to know. please try to include bumper shots, i know the paint is really weak there on these cars.
I would be more than happy to teach or work with anyone if they wanna know how to maintain their paint or if they want me to do some work for them.
Colorsanding is meant for clearcoats. When they paint your car, they usually put a good 5-7 thick layers of clear on your car. What happens when your car looks like **** is usually the top layer of clearcoat or some of the top layer is dead/faded etc...

To the lowlife who nicked the silver hardtop off of my fathers 02' NB LS last night in Santa Rosa, CA, Karma's a bitch.
If anyone in the area spots a silver hardtop come up for sale, or notices their buddy suddenly acquired a new one ...it's likely stolen. Feel free to administer a good boot...
Long shot here since the Venn diagram of people who actually wanted a PRHT and people who work on their cars is two completely separate circles. I've been googling a bit this morning and it's very possible I'm just horrible at it but is there some sort of guide to servicing and cleaning all of...
Hello, I recently joined these forums and saw this section so I figured I'd use it to ask a question that has been stumping me. I've seen this rear spoiler on some NA's and NB's and haven't been able to identify it and was hoping someone with more roadster knowledge than me could help. Thanks...
