very nice detailing job man

Hell yea that detail was immaculate. Post some daytime pics please!!

^^^thanks everyone! I was really happy my uncle was so happy, he has been to other ppl who claim to do detail work, and I was able to get the holograms and buffer swirls out for him. I get better every time I do a detail like that, but I definitely need to invest in a DA polishing wheel. My shoulders are sore. Lol

Feels like a long day at the gym huh?! lol it paid off tho

Which rubbing compound did you use?

 

[96romaCX]

My uncle picked up the car at 830 this morning to get it in his garage before it rained. I didn't wake up till 1030 lol! Plus it's dark out now, I'll ask him to send me a pic later. In the first pics of the emblem it had rain etching and leaves etchi gs all over the hood/fenders roof and a trunk.
@mymmeryloss- thank you bud!
@-emerican- thank you too! I've never worked so hard in my life cleaning a cars paint, that's the best I've done so far :p
@aneidiaztorrez- he took it home before I woke up:/
@Chaddibj8- heck yeah!!! I'm not sore this morning tho... Maybe I've got super powers.. Loll
@xxbloodshotxx- I used clean micro fiber applications pads, MF new towels in a pack, turtle wax clear coat safe liquid rubbing compound, meguiars scratchx2.0, mothers cleaner carnauba wax and polish. And ELBOW GREASE hahaha

I feel you. You did a great job tho. Try to take some pics before the detail wears off tho. I'd love to see that in daytime light. It's truly a sight to behold.
