LanceM`s First Ever Detail: Black S2000 tons of pics

[LanceM]

Well, I`ve "detailed" my old rsx, but never used a buffer. I finally bit the bullet and bought a buffer, because the dealer put a ````load of swirls. The paint was fine when I test drove it. Then they detail it for pick up and wham ugliness.
