  • First car with the new buffing cart...

    Got this thing in yesterday. Neighbor, who's a pilot, uses this car as his "airport car". So it gets pretty beat up. He just paid it off, and wanted to spruce it up a bit, he came to the right place

    Some of you remember I just built that buffing cart. This is the first buff with the new cart, and I am extremely impressed with it! So much light, and exactly where it needs to be! Having all my tools right there, hooked up and ready to go is a huge improvement! I really can't say it makes anything go faster, but the convenience of having everything right beside me, ready to go is so nice!

    A HUGE thanks to John M here from MOL. He came over and helped me get this thing finished. Without him, I would have never made my deadline! Thanks John!


    And the afters...








    Here's a close up of the flake. Really couldn't see any of the flake too well before I got a hold of it.







    And that is not wax or product on the edges, it's chips.

        Nice work Nick, that car was a mess.

        How did you handle those larger scratches between the fender and door? Did they come out with just the DA?

                Nice work as usual Nick!

                Looks like they washed this car with a Brillo Pad?

                  You will be impressed! No doubt about it. M105 has become my product of choice, and is the first product I pull out when attacking paint correction. This is just my personal observation, but it works on about 95% of the vehicles that I take care of. I may need to adjust my pad choice or machine choice, but it just about always works. Very rarely do I ever have to adjust my first step(New M105 formula).

                    Well, like I said, this is an airport car, and has only seen drive through washes. He has been officially schooled on washes and maintenance. So it should last him a while now

                      Nice job on the airport car. I know several pilots with airport cars. Don't you love how they have a car just for the airport? What does he drive to the Country Club, convenience store, get the kids from school, etc....? Does he have a car for each? LOL

                        that cart is slick! I don't have enough room in my garage to store something like that when done with it. Car looks amazing as usual! I can't wait to get my m105.

                          Great work as usual. That car was a mess. Glad the cart worked so well. The finish on that car looks amazing. Way to go.
