Exterior only. Awhile ago she ran into another car and the bumper/hood got damaged. I guess the shop buffed the whole car and introduced tons of swirls and holograms, but the paint job looked to be top notch. The owner is coming back tomorrow and the forecast is RAIN. :(

#80 - Edge 2000 green pad

Top notch paint job is right and you helped getting it to look its best!

The clarity really came back to the paint. Great work!

Thanks NavindraLR - this is the first detail I`ve had since the red BMW. At least I`ve been busy with massages.

For some reason, I can`t post on Autopia again so I e mailed David to see if he
can fix it.

What`s MIA?

Thanks Sean - I`ll find out from her who did the bodywork/paint just so I have it as a reference.

#80 seems to be great on dark colored cars. seen some recent pics of #80 and I think I should get some to give it a try.

Hey Karll - #80 looks good on every color I have used it on. You do want to have it on hand. In case you didn`t know, #80 is Scottwax`s "go to" product. Take a look at his work.

Those reflections are off the hook! Simply Awesome!

I was wondering also where you have been. Haven`t seen you post in a while.

I agree, #80 is a very nice product. I make sure I always have some and use it often.

Thanks Lee.

I loved #80 with the rotary too. (practice) Excellent product.

PS: I am around and reading all the posts except these past 2 weeks we have been short handed and I`ve been massaging much more (good for me). As I said on Autopia I can`t post.

I want to step up to the rotary in the near future myself. I plan on lots of practice.

You can`t post post on Autopia.... Is it because of some kind of error?? Hopefully you can get that worked out.

Yes, and it happened before. That time it was my cookies but that has been fixed, so I don`t know what it is now.
this is what I get
