Whether it’s showroom fresh or just rolled over 200K, everyone loves a mirror finish on their car or truck’s paint job—and the good news is, you can get it yourself with a little bit of elbow grease…

…along with the right tools and know-how, of course.

That’s why the Summit Racing video team enlisted the help of a fellow Summit Racing employee, Kerry McFarland. In addition to being an expert paint-and-body guy, Kerry’s an excellent teacher—so in this walkthrough video, he’ll show you the proper paint sanding, polishing, and buffing techniques to ensure you get the results you want.

At over 15 minutes long, this video doesn’t skimp on the details either.

Follow along and you’ll see all sorts of tips and tricks to getting a showroom-spec finish on your ride. More importantly, you’ll get a closer look at the tools, pads, and compounds you’ll need to finish (Pun!) the job. (We’ll also include a product list below the video here too, to help you out.)
