    Fantastic job. Great amount of correction.

    I really like the 50/50 and the sun pictures, you can really see the correction and defect removal achieve, sun won't lie.

    I wouldn't say the clear was swirled... More like de-glossed. It really looks like it was washed with a gray scotch pad.

    Awesome work, it looks as every black car should.
    Nice after shots, by the way.

    SWEET GLORY! WHAT A CAR AND WHAT A JOB! Looks like you really had you're hands full but I'm sure a handsome payment was in order and a pleasant reward after all that work!

    What a fantastic transformation. The Z looks absolutely stunning. The paint looks wet. The reflection shots are truly amazing.

    Congrats on the baby.

    Looks Awesome! I couldn't figure out why the muffler after picture looked funny until I realized it was the reflection of the ground in it that look funny haha

    Seriously, that was hands down the BEST part of the detail. Actually his look might have been second to mine when he first pulled up and I saw the sun hit those swirls!


    BTW, I'll be posting a bunch of stuff. I first come to this site on '08 and the wife and I had our first little one last year so needless to say I wasn't doing a lot of detailing so I have some catching up to do with showing some jobs I've done so I apologize ahead of time for the whoring. : )

    I forgot about the 106ff. I used that on a white pad and I probably used 3 orange pads and 1 white total.
