Looks great and you used alot of high-end products on this vehicle. Too bad about the lighting . Did you have to finish up in the garage? Hope you got paid well.

Hawaiianelement: thanks.. yeah i had to finish up in the garage cause the lighting sucked... id say i got payed pretty well.. i mean after all, he tipped me 25 bucks...

DOC: it did rain the next day.. sucks right? well he wasnt drivin it cause he went on a business trip, so hopefully the menzerna fmj will protect it, and it will still be lookin good when he gets back.

How long did the entire take? Also how long did it take for the paint alone for you had alot of steps on it, looks great! Also did you find that 303 did not stay in the wheel wells and streaked?

Question?

Why did you use a rotary on the first 3 steps? That is a new car and unless it was really abused I just had to wonder?

The car looks great to bad about the lighting it would have looked allot better!

i did not do the whole car with 3 steps, if you read the process it states that i used the IP and FP to spot treat scratches, not the whole car. i used aio for the whole car.

Beemerboy: thanks for the compliments
AZ Ferrari Man: the entire detail took between 6 hours.. but i was working on and off with it. the paint alone took probaby 45minutes - 1 hour. i havent had any problems with 303 yet, but ive heard about others having it...
