In preperation to get the car sold...

I am cleaning it up and buffing out 10+ years of swirls. I just started with the spoiler today to get my process. Used just a porter cable DA with LCC pads.

Washed
Clayed (no apparent contamination)
M105 on a Orange Pad #5 setting 2 passes
M205 on a White Pad #3.5 setting 2 passes
Show Car Glaze on a Blue Pad #3.5 setting
Hand applied Ultimate Paste Wax

Very impressed. I'd call it 90-95 correction. Could have appied the rotary to make it quicker but no rush, just taking my time. Photos from my Droid Razr Maxx. You can def see the orange peel but looks amazing even with the daylight gun or halogens.

You can almost swim in it.

I'll work a section at a time, top down, looking at the sail panel next.

Got some more work done. Spent easily 8 hours on it but the front clip corrected quicker as its newer clear. After buffing 2 coats of ultimate wax. So easy to work with.
