You'll have a rotary before long and will be breaking into your neighbors garages to detail their cars, just like me LOL!

I almost lost my cookies lauging so hard. LMRO

Great job so far on that old 'Stang

I could see the headlines....

Associated Press:Earth

A man only known as Kerrinjeff has been arrested inside his neighbors garage. He was not there to burglarize the house, nor was he there to vandalize the house. He was only armed with a rotary polisher and polish. He had no explanation for it only that he needed to do it and couldn't take it anymore. He was asked if wanted to be represented by an attorney, he commented, that he wants to be represented by Meguiar's. A strange story indeed. Many people outside of the jail have picketed for KJ to be released and those people have strange names, maybe screen names holding up picket signs and holding rotary buffers, threatening that they will use them if he is not freed. A court proceeding will take place in an undisclosed courthouse.

Story to continue.

I'm sensing some kind of pattern...

LOL! Nice find for $500! I like the 50/50 shots! As a beginner to machine detailing, it really puts into perspective what is possible. I think the wife is working Sat & Sun, so I may not be able to head out and see the new stang... I'll lhave to see what the grandma's are doing...........

I picked up this Mustang for a good friend of mine in Canada. Needs alot of work, but not a bad buy for $500 It'll be shipped out within a few weeks.

I decided this would make some excellent portfolio material, so I will be restoring the paint this weekend. Here's what we're starting with after a good washing and claying. Lots of oxidation and pink paint:



Here's some 50/50 shots of the hood after M105/purple foamed wool on the Rotary at 1500 rpm followed by D151 on a polishing pad at 1200 rpm:

ON the polished side you can see clouds reflecting off of the hood (those aren't defects)










Lots more to come over the weekend, so stay tuned!
