OctaneGuy: Restoring a 1994 Acura NSX with Prima

The Acura NSX is one of my favorite childhood dream cars and this one came to me in pretty bad shape. The current owner is the 3rd owner and due to a lack of garage space, it lived outdoors for 3 years. The paint is a single stage measuring between 3 and 5 mil. It is oxidized and very thin. There are 6 scratches that measure between 4 and 12 inches long.

Restored using Prima Swirl and Prima Finish and finished with Prima Amigo and Prima Epic.
