Spent the entire day claying, polishing (not complete correction but enough to take the oxidation and stains off), and waxing the RX7 before going for a short drive (which was the first since I sorted out the carb, it’s very good now). Here are some pictures.

Got to love and admire a clean car.

That looks great. Good job on the paint correction. Is that a single stage paint?

Thanks! It’s base/clear fortunately. The finish on the roof has gone entirely matte, with a few areas where the clear has failed outright. Not entirely sure how I’m going to address that, yet. The correct answer is respray but that quickly snowballs into painting the whole car, which isn’t happening.
