The owner of the car found me on DC. Bought it 3 months ago but the car was at the dealership for a long time. Anyways - the stealership washed it (swirled it up) then another stealer wanted to fix the swirls and of course they introduced more of them. It was mostly cloudy but we got the sun come out a few times for me to see what I was doing. I`ll be taking care of this car.
I don`t belive there was a swirl free area on this car.
(the owner just e mailed that under his garage light he sees waterspots, so I guess it is going to get a vinegar bath or FK1s decontemination kit)

The paint is just a pool of black :) ...Those Jag curves don`t hurt either ;)

thanks Sean & NavindraLR
yes, got it on 10.06.2004.! (my birthday)
I am sure I`ll be fine with it, but want to work on my own car first with the makita. :(
PS: I used the same combo on the silver audi (pwc & pink wax) and I tell you, those too also make the paint smooooooooooooth

Thanks very much.
He is a young guy (He is in high school) and was trying to find some swirls after I was done. He was shaking his had :D
Now we have to get rid of the water spots, so have to redo a few steps afterwards.

Love it. This further proves that black, is in fact, `da bomb. :D
Do you have an aftermarket bumper on your car? I`ve never noticed that before.

Parents or just money smart?
