    Ground ball

    Yesterday morning I detailed a 02 Mercedes Benz C 230 Komressor Sedan. What a joy it is to detailed a 02 finish without any major paint defects !!! Light wash swirls and a few scratches were no challenge for Megs DACP + Swirl Free polish. I sealed the car with EX and topped with P21.

    Now if every detail would be this nice !!!

    Seeing leaves reflected in paint like that is a nice thing about autumn.

    Nice job!

    Work for Adam`s but use Poorboy`s EX-P? That`s good stuff!

    Even the competition uses Poorboy`s! Not much money, but what a shine!
    If you would just listen to me, other people won`t think you are as stupid as you really are.

    We don`t actually get fall here. I just used that as a reference for you guys.

    Title is a baseball term for an easy out (great job Redsox) !!! I have had some real "projects" as of late, and its real refreshing to buff out a car without getting overly agressive with regards to wet sanding and heavy compounding. I had a 97 Jaguar and a 96 Saab this week that were real "projects" !!! The black Saab was an acid rain/tree sap nightmare !!!

    Sometimes you can really appreciate a garaged kept 30k mile car !!! The entire int/ext detail was completed in just under 3 hours.

    GSRstilez - a ground ball is easy.

    And your ride is sweet. I miss my old GSR. It was stock but there`s nothing like tooling around at 8,000 rpm unless you have an s2000 and can tool around at 9,000...
    Fasten Your Seat Belt! It helps keep the aliens from sucking you out of the car.

    very nice work

    favorite saying by old baseball-guy Joe Garagiola ...

    "it`s a can of corn"

    go figure
    There`s a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".

    Great Work Dean,

    The Benz has nice paint to work with! Always very impressed with your details! I love the reflections you always capture!

    Our seasons are "almost winter," "winter," "still winter," and "construction."
    Hahahahahahaha...you must live in the same part of Canada as me??? It`s insane, but what Big Leegr said is true! Try being mobile with a new house being built beside the house you are cleaning a car at....sheeesh!
