Great job.

I have found that the more money people have the less they seem to take care of their cars.

'Thats a great look. I am really impressed at how you got rid of the swirls.\r\n\r\nI have been trying to get rid of a scratch on my car (2007 Maxima) that I got from a grocery cart at a parking lot. Can you please suggest a 3M or some other do-it-yourself product that will help get rid of it? \r\n\r\nHere is a pic of the scratch:\r\n\r\n'

I learned a lot from this thread. For one, FERRARI S are amazing.

and how do you like the 3M polishes?

Thanks Ken!!! I would definetly love to hang around with you as you detailed as well! The new 3M polishes are amazing, IMO. Menzerna is still my go to, for now, but 3M provides a viable alternative.

does anyone use souvereign anymore on Reds and Blacks ?? havent seen it here as an LSP lately.

Thanks Steck. I don't use a lot of Carnuaba's, but Souveran is still an amazing looking wax, IMO.

Excellent work as usual. I expect the rest of your C&Bs to only get better now that you've got a new camera. With that said, w00t! lol

Thanks Kaval. I am loving the Nikon and I wish I would have bought one earlier. I still need to work with the camera but I'm getting there.

Todd, it was great talking with you the other day. I hope all is well with the family.

My family is fine, everything worked out okay (big relief), thanks . The paint was so "red", if that makes since, that the wheels did look a little flat. Still a perfect combo, and one hell of a sweet Ferrari. It was great talking with you, and we will definetly be in touch.

Thanks for the kind words!

The black wheels are definitely a hit all around.

Thanks Brian, welcome to Florida!

It's amazing with the right camera and how it will bring the true look out. I need to pick one up in the spring.

I think you and I should start traveling around the US to perfect some beauties.

I hope your family is OK!!!!! Give me a call when you get a chance.

Thanks Ryan, lets both travel. We will go on a world tour!!!!!

Great job.

Thanks Josh. A lot of Ferrari's are swirled, I agree. I think its because a) the paint is soft and can swirl easily b) a lot of owners are scared about taking a high speed buffer to the paint (rightfully so!) c) they don't trust anybody else to do it. d) they don't know how much better the paint can look when its perfect.

That said, the Ferrari/exotic owners I work with are super cool and very appericative which makes my job that much better!

OT, I was down in your area a little while ago, and stopped into the Ferrari dealership there. Red Enzo and a 599 GTB in blue! Do you ever get to work on any of their cars?

Thanks Grease. I was actually telling the owner of this car that I preferred the 360 as well. Its a cleaner look (not that the F430 doesn't rock as well). I also like the 328's and 355's and 348's and TR's and Dino's, and GTO's and F40/F50/Enzo's and ... You get the point!! But I do love the 360

I never did work for any dealership up in Orlando, yet... The more important question is why didn't you get a hold of me when you where here?!
