Can you "spill the beans" and tell us what you used to perform such a miracle??? OR, is there too much detailer competition in your area???:xyxthumbs

Yes, too much competition.... using steel wool! :scared



I`ve used Menzerna`s Fast Cut (where needed) and Intensive Polish.



Then, in the hood, Mother`s 1st and 2nd step of their 3 step (testing ;) ).



On the rest, 1Z polymer wax-polish, a mild polisher w/ polymers, kind of a sealent.



The wax, I was sure of what it was going to be cause of the car color, 1Z Glanz Wax. Only the hood had the right to a coat of P21S wax, just to see...:cool:



But, as I thought, 1Z gloss rocks on silver!:xyxthumbs

You know, they might have used the bristle side of a house hold sponge. My doofus friend just DEMOLISHED his paint on his ford explorer with the wrong side of a sponge trying to remove bird ish and bug tar.



It is really a shame that so many DIY car washers end up damagin their paint because of impatience and inability.



Sad thing is, when using an abrasive sponge/steel wool, you cant see the damage while you are working. Only after the car dries is the carnage revealed.



Never-the-less, great work!!! You did good to your first customer.
