Another turd buff job. Finished this up a couple of days ago. I'll let the pics do the talkin.
The owner originally thought that the red valve covers were faded and needed repainting. (I'm assuming he didn't pop the lid very much...and ironically his wife asked me how I painted it lol)
Clay bar you ask? What's that?
Some of the smaller markers,moldings weren't masked due to their being a clear bra on a good majority of the car and that wasn't polished.
Questions/Comments welcome!

I didn't get a chance to take many pics because I had his 911 up next (which was just a decon and wax) but after seeing the 430, he decided to have all his cars done the exact same way.

yea i was gonna post pics of a mustang i did but im still writing the blog on it. i cant post em here cause the mods get all butt hurt. It not even about getting business on here cause im booked out as is. But sometimes when you try to inform the public of how to maintain their vehicles its called spamming. But i guess the pros know nothing huh?

Very nice job.
I got tired of walking that line a couple of years ago.
I understand their reasoning, but it can be frustrating when the vast majority of the detailing sponsors post nothing but ads and never offer help or advice.

Very nice job! is that nano'skins towel or speedy prep? I use both Med / Fine speedy preps and <3 em to death.
Anyhow I understand about the mod thing. I posted up here a couple months back about trading some detail work for some suspension work on my Formula with a link to my website/services and I almost got the ban-hammer for that.
EDIT: Nevermind, didn't notice the blue at first glance. Medium grade lol.
