You may have seen our recent video we uploaded? Well this is what we were dealing with! Some satisfying before and afters below.
Another restoration journey officially underway
This VE Maloo came in for a major paint correction inspection to determine what could be salvaged and what areas would require repainting as the owners finally decided it was time to begin bringing their pride and joy back to life after years of hard work as a daily driver and work ute.
On inspection, the paintwork presented with some very questionable defects including multiple areas that had previously been wizzed/sanded but never properly refined or buffed back out, leaving behind heavy marring, haze, uneven finishes and deep defects throughout the vehicle.
Our goal with this stage was to safely assess the condition of the paint, maximise what could be corrected, and create a proper foundation for the restoration moving forward rather than simply masking the issues.
After extensive testing and correction work, we were able to recover a surprising amount of gloss and clarity from the factory paint while also identifying the sections that will need repainting to bring the vehicle back to the standard it deserves.
Restorations like these take patience, experience and the right approach. We’re looking forward to continuing this build and bringing this Maloo back to its former glory!
