[BuffMe]

Thank you sir.



The OP said he liked it better then the PFW. How is the cut compared to the PFW? Sorry never used wool and am looking to try it out. And didn't mean to clutter your thread. Thanks!

I would love that motor on my drive way, it would never move though gas prices in the UK are over $11 a gallon.



Lovely car though and cracking detail.

 

[imported_JoshVette]

Wow, great job on that and great write up also.



Nice work.

awesome work sir!

 

[kaval]

Stunning work. That's how black is supposed to look!

 

[imported_MBenz]

Wow that is quite a job. Great work. Just curious, how long did the entire job take? did you do it all on your own?

 

[imported_sal3291]

Looks great

 

[MCWD]

Looks fantastic... My only question is how did they find you? The vehicle seemed to be very dirty, and in need of your attention. But all is well that ends well.

 

[TSC17]

David...so I can probably assume from your methods that you find the UF SE to be a finer finishing polish than PO85rd? I've been curious about this, and then saw this post.

 

[David Fermani]

Wow - sounds like a lot of work!!! Great Job.

It sure was. I loved every minute of it.

Huge turnaround, looking fantastic!

Thanks.

what a turn a round!!



Awesome job David :woot2:

Thanks.

never surprised with your work, it's always stunning! :up



p.s. i wish i had my old powell shirts (loved cabellero's style, he was my fave), i remember back in the day i got a special bones brigade t-shirt through the mail and i kick myself as i don't know what i did with all of them . did you ever find animal chin? LOL ...

Thanks. I actually still have a bunch of old PP shirts, boards & stickers. I think the old brigade was suppose to get together to do another video?

WOW! Absolutely top notch work. :bigups



Tastefully modded truck too, he just needs to get rid of those door handles.

Thanks. I kinda like the door handles. :chuckle: The Brembos make this monster stop on a dime.

Excellent work David! All your hard work polishing really shows.

Thanks B.

Amazing work David and nice write up.



Let's just hope he can keep it in great shape now.

Thanks Jedi Master! I hope so too.

Never ceased to amaze!!



David, is that a fixed 45 deg. tip on the pressure washer?

Yes sir. It actually has a ceramic center section.

Very, very nice work. That thing looks beautiful now.

Thanks.

Awesome work. That is one sexy toothbrush handle.

Thanks. My wife has good taste.

Awesome correction work on the Escalade David, looks so wet:drool:

Thanks Angelo.

That is an amazing toothbrush...



Great work David, thanks for sharing... My back is killing me just looking at that thing!

Thanks Todd. I took Advil for 3 days. :bawling:

great work Dave!

Thanks Phil.

Stunningly awesome:2thumbs:

Thanks.

Looks great Dave! Bet it was the best looking 'slade in the state until he washed it.

Thanks Tim. I bet it got trashed on the way back down to Miami.:hairpull

beautiful, great job, and gotta love the exotic toothbrush handle, lol

Thanks a bunch. I really like it. :up

Very nice work David!

Thanks.

great great great job - where is So Fla are you located?

Thanks. I'm in Wellington/Lake Worth which is just south of W. Palm.

Great job David! Try to apply Glisten with a finishing pad and rotary on low rpm.

Thanks man. Their rep told me the same thing. They say the heat creates a stronger bonding.

I'm sorry if my eye beams just dirtied that. That's just amazing.

Thanks.

Awesome job David. That toothbrush is "pimpin" !!!!!!









Here you go.

Double thanks Pat! Have you had a chance to try one yet?

Thank you sir.

Thanks. It's a must have for me. If you like PFW, I think you'll like this better.

I would love that motor on my drive way, it would never move though gas prices in the UK are over $11 a gallon.



Lovely car though and cracking detail.

$11! Ouch. :shocked

Wow, great job on that and great write up also.



Nice work.



Josh

Thanks Josh. I actually took your advise and used a leaf blower. It help out alot.

awesome work sir!

Thanks Rick.

Stunning work. That's how black is supposed to look!

Thanks. It looked alot better in person. :chuckle:

Wow that is quite a job. Great work. Just curious, how long did the entire job take? did you do it all on your own?

3 hours Friday night / 14 Saturday / 8 Sunday = 25 :sign

Looks great

Thanks Paesan. Viva Italia!

Looks fantastic... My only question is how did they find you? The vehicle seemed to be very dirty, and in need of your attention. But all is well that ends well.

Thanks. This person found me here.

David...so I can probably assume from your methods that you find the UF SE to be a finer finishing polish than PO85rd? I've been curious about this, and then saw this post.

I like to use UF when the paint is as close to finished as possible. 85RD creates an incredible gloss, but can look patchy/uneven in areas at times. UF will flatten out any inconsistencies. Just a safeguard I guess.

nice, i wish i had all my old stuff (santa cruz, etc.) left . if they got back together that would be awesome! :bow

 

[imported_artikxscout]

great job. Extensive work and writeup! That's definitely a winner.

 

[Rickrack]

David,

This has to be one of the best details I have see from you. Your work contunues to get better and better! :xyxthumbs



While others would have considered the job "perfect" after 106ff, you went the extra mile with two additional polishing steps! It sounds like you caught the sickness than Ryan and I have



The Escalade looks incredible, especially considering how much of a PITA soft GM black is to work on! Top notch work David! :drool::drool::drool::drool::xyxthumbs:xyxthumbs





BTW: How do you like the Mark V sealant? I have been using their compounds for a while now and really like them.

Thanks so much Rick. You can never polish a black vehicle enough I guess. :nixweiss



I like Mark-V's products alot. I've used their degreaser, window cleaner, dressing, fabric & paint sealant and they are very nice. I've got a box full of their polish & compounds that I'm waiting to try out next. Especially their Quik Cut which is a deminishing abrasive.

Where can I order Mark V?
