    Looks good Scott,

    You're right about the practice, it's just like anything, the more you do something, the better you get at it.

        It's nice working on black though cause you can actually see the product break down.


        I doomed myself and am doing 2 black cars this weekend, atleast they aren't big SUV's this time


        I concentrated more on the inside of this car cause after I washed it my sister in law came out and said how wonderful it looked

        I hadn't even started. I knew she couldn't tell much difference

          Isn't that always how it is with girls. Once you get the mud chunks off their street car, they think it is a completely new vehicle.

            so true


            Luckily my girlfriend isn't like that. She doesn't like washing and waxing her car but when I miss a spot or don't get some kind of flaw out she's real quick to point it out


            as I was telling the guy before you showed up the other day. I slept in the other weekend for the first time in a long time and walked out to our carport and she was changing the oil in both of our cars



            What's your summer schedule like man? We should get together and polish up the C4!

                You sound pretty dumb.
