    Thanks Bryan for getting up early to run the rotary on the car in preparation for the upcoming "Tyrone Founders Day Car Show".



    Thanks for not getting mad when I squeezed the bottle of EC/OP too hard and sent the stuff flying out of the bottle at a high rate of speed, all over the garage floor and the car.



    On the drive home, I swear the car was a different color. It seems darker, yet brighter if that makes any sense.



    I finished out per your insturctions and had a decent run with the rotary.



    I can not believe the difference in the car - It really changed the looks and it looks GREAT.



    This car has come a long way from when I first got it.

    Check out this VIDEO. I shot the video a few months after getting the car. The fender has been clayed, the hood has not been clayed. Some of you may remember seeing this.



    So the exterior was as follows -

    (Please make any corrections needed Bryan if I miss quote something)



    QEW and Clay with Clay Magic.

    Drive to Bryans.

    PB SnW.

    EC/OP with yellow LC VC pad at about 1500.

    Start 106/rmg on green excel pad at about 1500.

    (Tried the PC, green excel pad and the 106/rmg but Bryan said it was not finishing out as well as doing it with the rotary)

    Had a doughnut. (Thanks Amy and Bella)

    Drove home as Bryan had to go to work.



    Once at home I finished up the 106/rmg on the green excel at about 1500.

    RMG using PC on a blue excel pad worked in at about 4.

    PB NB.

    PB SnG.



    Re-dressed tires with Megs Endurance Gel.



    I still have to do the interior and may or may not get to the front wheels tomorrow.

    All done -

    Looks great! Sounds like the rotary made working with the Vette`s clear more bearable. Congrats on your first trophy! :hifive:

    Great results - the car looks wonderful. I am guessing that Bryan`s new WaxMaster 2000 is working well for him.

    On that video, that was some rough sounding paint. Beautiful car and congrats on the trophy.

    Thanks everyone.



    I forgot to mention the trophy was for top 25.

    Thank you very much for your kind words.

    I have learned a lot from from Bryan but still have a long way to go.

    I get all giddy when I think about buying my own rotary. :chuckle:
