This one started with me being woken up at 9:00 friday morning by my dad telling me our audio guy had a car he wanted me to check out. So i get up there and saw the car. It was trashed, and was asked if i could make it look better. Heres the car as it sat outside the garage before being cleaned. In the pics it doesnt look too terrible:

Except this is it under the lights after a wash with dawn. It is covered in swirlz and RIDS. The customer wasnt looking to spend too much so the wetsanding stayed in the water cup.:

I hate how hard this clear coat is, I had to use Megs maroon solo wool and Megs #86. this is prior to any other polishes:

Megs #83 with a w8006 polishing pad

Megs #82 swirl free polish with a w9006 pad

Back in the garage to check, what you are seeing are the many finger nail catching RIDS in this car. After talking with the customer, I have concluded the car was used as a shelf for many things, bricks, boxes, etc:

PS: who is your "audio guy" Why do you have one?



I call him my audio guy because he put the sound system in both my dads car and my car, and i had worked for him in `06 during the summer.
