Re: Picus & Holden_C04 - Polishing Perfection

I like that JUSTAKAR plate, but I thought license plates were limited to 7 characters? No?

No problem, Kevin. It was certainly my pleasure.

How did the Aston go?

Re: Picus & Holden_C04 - Polishing Perfection

And some of the paint correction...

the general condition of the black C5.



And gratuitous sun.







Didn't get befores of the C4 like a dork, wasn't swirled so much as a lot of sanding marks (it was just resprayed earlier this year)







And the C5 silver.

If they did do a great job, we'd be out of business.

I'd agree, but if I am not mistaken they charged him $500 for that work above.

Worst "complete detail" I corrected cost the owner $240. Anything above $80 for this type of "work" is enough for small claims court I think... $500 is just way too ridiculous... I would do a better job with one arm, a rotary, and my eyes closed... for $300 haha

Great job on the cars

You've got to try it with a foam cannon, i did it for the first time this week on two cars. one i didnt need to touch, just foam, wait, rinse. The other was my wife's work truck, that needed two washes, at minimal lol
