here are some before and after pics of my gf`s mom`s car. the car hadn`t been washed in a year, and when it did get washed, it was through the drive through washes.



Rotary w/ DACP with medium cut pad and light pad.

PC w/ 3M SMR with polishing pad

Klasse SG x 1



apparently the pics are too big to post and i have no clue on the resizing and crap so here are the links. hope thats not too much of a pain in the *** for you guys. thanks again.

Great transformation! I bet your gf`s mom was impressed. She probably didn`t recognize her own car. :bounce

[JimGo]

Holy cow! Did she even recognize her car????



GREAT job!:bow

thank you everyone for your nice comments.

tdekany-it took about three and half to four hours or so(exterior only). i don`t really remember exactly. it was just a fun job to work on because it was so bad and nobody really thought that it would come back. i really enjoy detailing, its extremly relaxing for me and its instant gratification. she was EXTREMELY surprised when i rolled up with her "new" car. i saw it a few days later after a nice rain and it was convered in water beads, she was very impressed. thanks again everyone for the comments.

Great resurrection on the TBird!



Now you will be "hooked" for life. Quick, go buy some more stuff!:D :cool:

Very impressive job :up keep up the good work !

[vdog0531]

Gonzo- yes i am already very hooked on detailing. although this is my first post on here (i think), i have done numerous jobs. unfortunately i don`t have a digi cam so i have no way to show off my work. I would also love to buy more products but i am back at WSU now for another 8 months and i don`t work as much up here so spending money on products wouldn`t be the brightest idea right now. I am kinda just doing research, research, and more research so when i do make my next purchases (probably before Winter break) i will buy exactly what i want. I am in the market to try new polishes and maybe some new pads as well for my Makita and for my pc. I am very happy with SG but would love to try some Wolfgang on some metallics and also try some EX/EX-p. but oh well.... now i`m just going on and on. thanks again guys for checking out my work.
