Very nice

I'm impressed with the lack of swirls, etc. Have you recently polished the car? What clay and wax are you using?

I used a mothers clay bar kit and then nanotec polish then meguars wax 2 times, took me 5 hours but definantly worth the pations also you have to have the right feeling when doing this. What I mean is that you have to find out where it comes out the best. Not bad for beeing a car that was totaled or? It will be repainted maybe next year but then it gonna be sunset orange metallic.

Thanks for the compliment.
