Couple of scretches (per 3 inches:D)



The whole car looked like this door. This paint was soft enough for the pc and I removed all but the ones that you could feel with your nail.

Was this subject to the Makita?



You mentioned alot of headliner work, because of coffe spills...



Did this car come with the anti-gravity option?

I again edited the post. Used the PC. That is why it took so long. No such option. :D

That`s what I get for not reading and just looking at pictures.



How the hell did they coffee get on the headliner? Anti-gravity upgrade? ;) Did the car like roll or something?

Maybe due to our wonderful bumpy roads. There were a few drops that didn`t want to come out but were reduced to a point hwere you had to really look. I didn`t want to destroy the head liner

Thank you very much Scott. I didn`t take any interior shots. That typical Honda gray fabric looks flat and there was not much to show. It wasn`t bad so I decided not to take pictures of it.

First the front door was worse and I thought the before picture was also of the same door.

Very nice work. Those scratches came out great!





No dedicated LSP? All I see is PwC.



Is this your full-time job now or are you doing medicine on the side?
