YW and TY . I actually was into the cars too much for my previous b/f! Hard to believe huh? I'm glad I was passed down the genes for it from my mom! I was going to the track when I was just 5 and loved it . BTW I also detail cars like you do but on the side. Would be good if I could do it now that I'm laid off. I just detailed a friends 2000 WS6 but it was cloudy out the day I did it and I couldnt get the scratches to show up so nothing to post . Her's didnt need wetsanding though but 95 Honda did. It's fun to shine it all back up with the P&C huh?

I just do it on the side also. Unfortunatley it's not a very steady business. But great side money. I do HVAC for a living.
It took the Makita to bring the Charger back. But I do like my Flex.
Use your car as a reference & get a couple jobs.That's how it all started for me 18yrs ago.Good luck to you & hope you find a job SOON.

Great work on the driving mirrors! Lol! What do you do in HVAC? I do Industrial. I am trying to get my contractors liscense, but that is one hard test for sure. MOL has some good info huh? What is you User name so I can look at some of your pics?

I know it is not LSX related, but it is the same concept. Restoration project.

I had to wet sand the hell out of this and used some 3m products to restore the shine!

After:


Before:


Side Reflection in bad light before wax!
