We buffed it with Meguiars #85, followed by #9 on a rotary as well.
We chased that with #9 on a PC. It was topped with Meguiars #21.
We have a little over 16 man hours into it.

Why did it need the #85? With #9 and a rotary, isn`t it possible to leave holograms and not know it because of all the fillers? Looks good regardless, but I am curious as to why you went so agressive.

It seems 85 and 83 are the go to *compounds* of your work. Is there really a need as said above for such abrasives on vehicles like this, especially so new? I`m just asking because I see so many horrible vehicles posted on here that are completed with far less abrasives especially via rotary...thanks for the help/input

Incredible work as always, Joe. :bow
I haven`t even seen an SLR in the Dallas area, yet alone detailed one.
The 45` Newell has you beat on single vehicle price though. ;) :LOLOL

The finish was badly scratched and swirled. There were buffer trails all over it.
I needed #85 to remove the defects.

OUCH! That thing was beat, and for a $450,000 car. I guess exotic owners just don`t appreciate their cars, which cost more than my house. The least they could do is keep it swirl free. Did it have ceramiclear?

Joe,
I know that blue in one of the refelections. It must be the blue on a Bugatti EB110. Did you detail that also?
Btw,
Unreal work, as ALWAYS.
