    Looks great sean. I saw this ride when he first started on thursday nights (about the same time I started). What a transformation. Way to go.

The paint on this thing scratches so easily i NEVER wipe off the polish after i have worked it in. i just try to get as much polish up in the pad when i am done polishing or i take a clean finishing pad put it on the DA and use it to get up the rest. Same with the wax i use a finishing pad to get up the wax. This paint CANT be wiped. To actually get up the swirls was a bit off work but they came up alright the hard part is getting the products off. Let me know how it goes with your sister's X5. I would be interested to see if it has the same problem.

    Good luck to you

    Wow I didn't know that the paint surface was that delicate. That's crazy. Your hard work definitely paid off because your X5 looks excellent! Yeah I order all of my products today and can't wait to get them and practice. I will be doing my sisters car after some practice of course, but I also will be using Megs #80 and #83! I will let you know how it goes! Thank you for the information.

    There are a lot of good "Mikes" running around here huh?
    LOL!

    That is one wet looking finish! #80 is one of the best out there.

    Thanks for posting!
