Just wanted to share a disappointing experience with you guys. A friend of mine wanted me to detail his black Pontiac G6, the entire finish is covered in water spots and swirls. The water spots are etched into the finish. He had very high expectations based on how I maintain my vehicles and I was up for the challenge. He had not washed his car in about a month and when it was washed it was ran through automatic car washes. I worked on the hood and achieved ok results. About 80% of the water spots and swirls were removed greatly improving the finish but not what he wanted. I clayed the finish then applied 105, 83 w/ a DA and 8006 pad. I had to do this process twice to get the results. I tried the luggage lid which was heavily swirled and I was not happy with the results. I used the 5 speed setting then on the second pass used the 6 speed setting. I have a good feel for the DA so I came to the conclusion that I need a rotary. Any recommendations? Thanks, here are some pictures.
This is the hood before the wash
This is the after. It was difficult to get good pics as it was overcast
