Just recently got done with it. 12 hours in polishing alone.
2 Passes with Pinnacle XMT 3 on yellow pad[GREAT Stuff!!!]
1 Pass with SSR 2.5 on orange pad
1 Pass with SSR 1 on orange pad.
Pinnacle XMT Carnuba Glaze by PC on Finishing pad.
This was my first time really getting into the PC. I really figured out a technique to use it, and was at a loss for words for the results I was able to pump out. The car isnt at 100%, more like 90%.. because the PC just couldnt get to some of the defects.
I plan on going over the car again sometime probably with some optimum hyper compound. But here are a few showing what results I got :) SOrry no full car pics yet. After 12 hours of straight PC work, there is still more work to be done... :(
What I started with. Image this ALL over.... I dont know what happened to my baby, but Im comin to the rescue! :waxing:

Hood still has a few imperfections I cannot correct. But the car has never looked better :)
THanks to everyone who took the time to answer my questions. I look forward to becoming more skilled at the PC :)
Will post full body shots later today when I get some sleep and feel like dealing with the dust and windows. Damn lovebug swarms....
