Excellent work Jose - keep it up! I have also found that the Menzerna is perfect for light to moderate surface problems, but more severe conditions need something more aggressive. Good call!

PS - I'll bet your back was aching after THAT one... heh heh.

When the customer was able to speak again, were his first words along the line of, "I didn't think my car could look that good..." Congrats, great job
