              Great save. The car looks great. Awesome reflection shots. Really like the one of the hood. Great work. Way to go.

                    the b-pillars have a TON of waterspots as well....trying to figure out a way to get it off. I used Megs 39 and it seems to help but you have to scrub scrub scrub. We also still have a ton of waterspots on the glass itself. Loooks like clay bar is helping to take that off

                              yeah it was pretty bad. i use a Porter Cable DA with the meguiars yellow pad so it took a couple passes. I used mostly M83 for the whole job.
