Well today was the exterior of this beast, and well lets just say it fought us the entire way. The previous owner must have been a frequent of the automatic washes, becasue this was littered with some deep marring and swirling. It took almost 5 hours of polishing alone just to get it correceted.



TOTAL TIME: 9+ Hours...

-Tires Dressed

-Inner Fenders Cleaned & Dressed

nice job! was curious... were you able to remove all the defects? it seems that most who have worked on a g35 on here, have had a hard time removing defects by pc, thus using a rotary...

I'd say I was able to get 90-95% of it out. It took multiple passes (sometimes 3) in some areas to get it to the level I wanted. I did bust out the rotary on the trunk and hood and it seemed to do ok.
