This customer came about 90 miles or so to drop her car off to me for a thorough correction. She has a lot of pride of ownership of this car and maintains it quite well. A year or so ago she wanted to have me detail it, but I was pretty booked up at the time, so she had a local guy do it. It looked good for about a month, then when the cheap wax wore off, you could see the swirls left behind and a good amount of rotary holograms. She had an eye for them and called me to fix it. Timing wasn't too good, as I had family staying over from out of state for several days, but oh well. I got her car looking good and was able to spend time with family too.
After a solid 2 days on her car, it came out about 98% perfect. She was quite happy with the car, and even her husband was impressed (who had thought detailing a waste of money).

The sky had a slight haze and hid some of the direct light, covering some swirls, but they were worse than pictured.
