Awesome turn around on the Mini. Too bad a nice little car like that is stuck with the owner it has. Both details look great. :2thumbs:

Both look great Thomas! The mini convertibles are nice, not much paint on them!



At least the lack of rain should keep the mini clean for a while. :)

Thanks for the kind words. Too bad the after pix are not good enough to show off the Altima. :( It came out real beautiful.

Great work Thomas. I am sure the owner of the Mini was stunned at the turn around...:bow

Thanks Pat - She was very happy with the result. I think I was able to convince her to run it through a car wash at least every couple of months. maybe even call me to give it a proper wash, although I prefer not to "wash" cars.
