Thanks Guys!

Since it didn't rain today the owner was able to see his car in direct sunlight and he was happy to report that the car looked great! He is once again happy to look at his own car

I sent him the before/after pictures. He will try to get a partial refund - the interior was ok - although I didn't really look at the inside, but he shows his car so there isn't much to clean anyways.

Beautiful Thomas. Are you wearing knee pads? I hope you charged him accordingly for five hours of your time.

Hi Brad - yes I am wearing them. Cost $14.95 at home depot. They sure help.

I consider him a friend. Charged him $150.00 - initially I was told that I am only removing holograms, he didn't really say much about swirls.

He may want me to do his girlfriend's car and I think another. Plus there is another guy with his black Jetta from our old club that is also interested now.

BTW, do you have some extra Extreme Cut I could purchase from you? I'd like to try it.

How are you doing?

I would never make you buy it from me, but yes I think I can spare some. IMO it is not necessary except in rare situations. I have been getting great results with the Medium Cut via a wool/acrylic pad, followed by the medium cut via Cyclo to remove the swirls/holograms. If that does not do the trick, there is always the Heavy Cut. The Extreme can be a little difficult to work with at times.

Wow... great job. It's amazing what some vendors will tell customers just because they did the job wrong/half assed. That paint looks mint now!
