Heres my sister`s 1999 Ford Escort, as some of you saw at the Poorboy`s Detailing day in NY. A little over 3 weeks ago, I gave it a full detail, even though it was in pretty good shape from the previous owner. Polished out with 1Z Paint Polish with a polishing pad than applied EX-P by hand. Applied EX-P extremely thin and buffed everything twice then once again with a different MF. So far so good, with no mystery unbuffed spots appearing :bigups . Anyway I was S+Wing it just now and along comes UPS with my "repaired" Nikon Coolpix 3700. Bought the camera August 19, sent it back twice, get it today and no apology from Nikon :mad: .I`m now on my third LCD screen,and though i`d try it out on my sister`s car. Sorry about the lighting conditions, it was getting dark fast so I just snapped away.

Thanks guys. Not sure what happens to my pictures, but once I resize them they look horrible. They really seem to lose their quality, maybe I should try another resizing program :dunno . Steve, so far so good. I also did a Grand Prix at the end of the summer in direct sun. Used SSR2.5, VM, EX-P, and called him after two weeks(time spots were appearing on cousin`s truck) to see if he was getting any spots, but he said no. Next time my cousins detail their trucks I gotta show them REALLY thin coats, thats probably why they had the most drastic unbuffed spots appearing.
