I knew something was up when I saw who the author was.

It's so predictable, it's almost boring
Nice job

Everyone needs help now and then. I have a customer whose kid wanted me to detail his G35 coupe, but after the flatbed brought it by the warehouse today, I am not sure what my plan of attack should be....especially since the kid rolled it 3-4 times, climbed out of the wreckage only to see the car burst into flames about 5 minutes later. There is about a 1' x 2' section of paint still intact on the driver's side rear bumper. I guess I can start there. The rest is a charred mess. The interior will be easy though, nothing left of it! Any suggestion on how to remove the black from the seat springs would be most helpful!

BTW, I took pics, should have them up when I finish the new roll of film.

I don't think the cloudiness is as bad as that green fungal stuff on the hood. Sorry. I have no suggestions on how to get rid of that. Steel wool might make it go away....

Scott, it shines so good I even see MY reflection on that hood! How is that...possible????

W O W - Great work as usual. Scott, did you use your PC? When are you going to get a Cyclo?

Ops - I should have read all of the post - my bag.
