Restoring a Bike's Original Paint - Spindatt Style

Restoring the original paint on this Sekai Bigfoot from the 80's turned out great. I don't think my end results were as good as Spindatt's but they are awesome. Check out his video restoring the paint on his rockhopper here: https://bit.ly/3kXpJKz . His steps to restoring the original paint are:

1 - Clean the frame
2 - Use a clay bar to clean up contaminants and smooth the original paint.
3 - Buff the bike using rubbing compound on a random orbital sander or buffer.
4 - Clean off the rubbing compound.
5 - Wax the bike, he used automotive detailing wax, I used Spray.Bike Frame Builders Wax.
