The pads I assume where new how did you prime them. I'm still working getting things down and just curious how you went about getting the pads ready to use

You achieved this on your first time using a d/a? Awesome work. The reflections and clarity you achieved are outstanding. Great work.

STUNNING!! Of course I'm a little prejudice when it comes to black cars
Beware of the envious rubberneckers admiring themselves in the reflection of your side panels as you're driving down the road!!

Thanks for the tip! I know that you speak from experience.

WOW fellow F-Body owner here a Black WS6. That is one sweet camero. Nice job. Did you find the paint easy or hard to work with and how was the 105/205 product with your car??

I don't really have a reference to compare it to, but based on what I have been reading online the clear coat was very hard. Spot correction of the etching and hood streak required 6-8 total applications of M105, and the horizontal surfaces required 4 applications. One application involved working the M105 until it begin to dust, misting it with Last Touch diluted 1:1, then continuing to work until it dusted again. Remove product with microfiber and repeat.

Very nice

I like the car

Thank you!

Let's see.....cut the grass or make the pretty black car shiny?? No brainer if you asked me

You can see where my priorities lie! My car is shiny, but it's hard to see it behind the jungle of grass.

This is your first experience using a G110 buffer? And you do this to a 7 year old black car?

Gee, to think there are still people out there who think using a machine like this is too hard, too dangerous, too scary!

The Camaro looks gorgeous - very nicely done!!

Yes, this is my first experience using a G110 buffer and only my second time ever using a machine buffer at all. A local friend gave me some tips on how to use his PC 7424 several years ago. For some reason I thought that a 7 year old black car with a perfectionist owner (me) would be a great training experience. LOL, I have no fear!

Thank you for the compliments! I have learned a lot from reading these forums, and it really has helped learn what to expect from the buffer and products. Without the support available here, I don't think there's any way I could have achieved these kinds of results on the first attempt. Now if I could just figure out the NXT 2.0 streaking and cloudiness problem...

Now that is nice and black! I'm surprised there isn't much orange peel like there is on the new cars. Great job!

Thank you! It does have some minor orange peel to it, but it's pretty good for a factory paint job. I like how the car looks like a black hole, absorbing all light around it, unless it picks up a reflection and then it's like a mirror. It's wild looking watching it go down the street!

So I decided it was time to buy my first buffer and get my black 2002 Z28 with ~50k miles looking great again.
