Very cool. That's about the same amount of time it takes me for a 4th gen by DA.

Thanks for the info

This one took a little longer than expected because of the rubber/tar on the piece of fender that wraps under by the wheel well.

Steven (hope that's how you spell it) correct? Nice meeting you and thank you for moving the car those few times for me.

Thank you for the kind words. Send me a pm when you would like to get it taken care of.

Thanks again to you and Ezra!

That depends on how the owner cares for the paint when I'm not doing it. I try to educate each person a little after correcting their paint on how to keep up with it.



It starts with using the correct products to wash the car along with drying it.

For the triangular pieces I used the same as the paint. M105/205 and then seal. I would also try Menz SIP and PO85RD the finishing on the 85RD is amazing and I sometimes use that as a LSP. It's a great product. They end up finishing like mirrors. I didn't get a chance to snap any pics of the afters on the triangular pics but check my other detail threads and you can see how they finish.
Hope this helps.

makes sense now.....

??? I'm very confused on what you're stating/asking...?

The "correction" process of the cars paint is completed with a series of compounds/polishes along with a DA.


In my first post it has the products I used to achieve the finish.

Hopefully this makes it a little more clear.

ok, so you basically buffed all the imperfections out of the stock paint with compound/wax stuff !?!?

if so, that's freaking fantastic !!!!!!!
