Great work Joe! That is an insane amount of time but the results are awesome. I wouldn't let anyone touch the car after all that lol. Did you have some down time to do this all at once?
 
Thanks guys!

Well it was separated, The initial sanding actually left super fine pig tails . My initial combo was just FG then pf 2500 but I wasn't satisfied so the following week I want back, compounded even harder with FG an a Rupes 21/CPwool. Got everything out completely, followed up with FF3000 then SF4500. I worked non-stop on both cases... ugh my hands hurt.

I actually wasn't going to bother with it but, I had another client with an S60R. after I did his... I said thats it!
