Thanks. lol, no, I finished the car on Sunday after dark and it was rainy. So, I went back the next day during work on my lunch break and snapped a couple of pictures. You can see what I normally wear in the reflection pic of the Merc.

Thanks.

Yeah, I noticed some of this stuff while I was adding the boarders to them. I figured I had better point them out so people didn't think I missed anything.

I know. I wouldn't have a black car as a Daily Driver, but my Mustang is going to be painted black cause it looks so good when clean.

Tell me about it. It took quite a bit of scrubbing to get it off and all the stuff behind the spokes. I wish I could have taken the wheels off. I did put her a coat of Klasse AIO on them so the dust will come off easier for a while.

Well, both. I used a rotary with a wool pad to get the sanding marks out and then I used a PC to get everything else off.

The rotart is just a cheap Craftsman one that I picked up at Sears. I only have a couple of wool pads for it right now. I plan on stepping up to a nice rotary and some foam pads a little later to help save some time. I got to save some money though. But right now, the PC is doing what I need it to do.
