                      Great Job KC

                      I once put swirls in my paint just to see what it looked like.

                      I don't always detail cars, but when I do, I prefer Meguiar's.
                      Remove swirls my friends.

                              LOLz Seth........thanks for yr encouraging words...the credit goes to all my detailing buddies....they actually came to the children to help me to details 4 full size passenger van, also giving hand on rotary lesson to fellow club members & this is the last ride before we hit home
                              we work under a huge nylon canopy, noon i think is 96 f + plus coming conceal heat of canopy

                              evening around 86 f

                              pretty hot....we started compounding...but everythiong just caked up...esp this oxidized paint ....only resorting to wet sanding - then re compunding & continue wet sanding & 3rd compunding & wet sanding again & 4th compunding.....they only reason we continue was :-
                              this is a repainted - there is no sign of paint transference yet
