First rotary attempt: Now, Scotwax, these pics suck compared to yours so some advice would be appriciated, they were also taken at night.



See my thread on "Rotary Disaster...Almost" in machine polishing for a laugh . . .



process:



pinnacle ultra-poly clay

optimum compound w/ orange LC pad

optimum polish w/ white LC pad

Automagic Carnuba Express Wax (I know, but it was a used car for delivery to cust.)

Thoughts, Comments, Oppinions . . . I know I need photography skills and the sunny daylight . . . .

tougher than an coffin nail . . . . just one week prior FAST05STANG and I detailed a jet black 330I, the PC couldent touch the defects, however, that was using pinnacle ASW/AFP, which, in an effort to keep my comments civil and ladylike, did not work as well as Optimum.

I wish . . fiished car at 8 PM and then off it went to the new owner . . . I did back it out while we still had sun after the OP, and it looked great (stupid me, didnt think to take pics then . .) - the automagic express wax gave a little depth and added a tad more gloss but it is more of a express detail product with about 2 weeks of protection. (souveran really isnt worth putting on a full detail for 200 bucks . . . - which is very light for full in and out, but this guy brings me 8-14 cars a month, and are all usually in new condition with little defects. . . usually . . .)



I know it really tests the detailer and product with sun pics . . . the next few will have some . . .
