    Things You'll Do when your bored and you have M86 to spare

    Nothing to do , drove to my friends chop shop and got myself a Daihatsu L200 bonnet. Since nothing to do , this is what happen to me today......

    Gave it a good wash through with Kit Car Wash + APC (5:1).
    When the heaven open , found all of this !!!
    SWIRL CITY !


    One of the edges was very badly damage !!!
    Lots of RDS and whatever you name it , it's there !

    After one round of M86+W8006

    After 2nd round of M86+W8006

    So, W8006 is not making enough cut. Didn't manage to lay my hands on anything that can cut so , brought out the Makita Wool Pad !!!! :lol:
    After 1 pass of M86+Makita Original Wool Pad and Finish with M86+W8006


    The rest of the bonnet !
    After First pass of M86+W8006


    After 2nd pass of M86+W8006

    Again it wasn't cutting good. Brought out Mr Wool Pad

    Left a trail and some minor hologram's
    So i finish off with M86+W8006


    This is what you get when you're bored and your hands are itchy !
    Btw , special thanks to the members here for guidance. Especially fishbonezken , Krismas n g88 (all from Meguiars Malaysia)!

    Note : First timer here using using 9227C for polishing ! Was fun !!!!!

The silver one demands nothing and it looks just fine. I think the black vehicle is taking advantage of me, and the silver car is more my style. We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.

      Simple. It was my first time with the Makita.
      Didn't wanted to test the stuff on a real car anyway.
      Furthermore , the bonnet was borrowed. Didn't cost me a cent.
      Might return it when it's over.

              I presume by "chop shop" you mean a body (repair) shop, but here in the US, chop shop has a different meaning...so you probably don't want to use that on this board, if you know what I mean

                    Thanks for the kind words J. A. Michaels, Krismas (been seeing you around alot lately), yalerd and Mr Mustang.
                    Setec Astronomy : Thanks to you too. I seriously have no idea what does it mean in the States. Nevertheless , I'll choose my words wisely next time.

                      I wasn't refering to anything you said, it was meant as a joke about davey g-force asking a group of people who are completely crazy about detailing and will go to unbelievable lengths and take extreme measures to make sure every little flaw that 99.999% of the people would never notice: "Why would you wax & polish an old, junk hood?"

                      (PS...the answer is...because it was there and it was all swirled and it was faded and looked terrible and because none of us could sleep at night knowing it was there and needed buffing and.....

                        Hi Don.
                        I knew you were referring to davey g-force. But i was referring to the post by Setec Astronomy.

                        I didnt know what meaning it carries in the US by the word "chop shop".

                          A "chop shop" here in the US is a place where criminals disassemble stolen cars so they can sell the parts and not be arrested as car thieves.
