very nice job. i bet the owner was very happy w/ the results.

Indeed he was. He said the finish looked so clear you can use it as a mirror. He also thought that the damage was permanent and the only way he can fix it was with a repaint. So I'm glad to have saved him money as well.

BTW, you got a nice car! I really love the 8th gen civics esp the MMC ones. They look good when tastefully modded.

Looks fantastic! did you wash it at night?

Yeah I washed it at night. I did this in the middle of the Phoenix summer so I wanted to get started polishing early the next day.

Fantastic work!!! Very impressive!

Never too many pics. Thanks for taking the time to post them and show us your success!

Thanks a lot Andy! I really appreciate that. Yeah I don't understand why people complain about having too much pictures. I love looking at other people's detail and the progress associated with it.

Looks amazing, great job!

Thank you!

Hey Marc, did you forget buffing out the '86 Mustang with a Vector rotary and a purple foamed wool pad?

All the answers to that are in my first post.



Hi Greg,

I'm not sure because I've never used a rotary in my life. I plan on buying the Makita sometime in the future though.

Wow, great work!

Re: Detailed: 1998 Mercedes Benz E430 - BLACK!!!

Just curious...how long did the work take you?

Did you use purely DA? or Rotary as well?

All the answers to that are in my first post.

Fantastic job with those buffer swirls and holograms.
Marc, how do you rate Flex comparing to Makita? I know it's lighter and more manuverable. Please let me know.
