Just did a Ferrari and a Lambourgini Diablo today. These two would have to be the most expensive cars I've detailed. I also detail a 41 foot yacht twice a year. Not sure if we are including boats.
Most exotic or expensive car you've detailed

scott wax, you must use light pressure and small areas to work a=on at a time. otherwise you would create more swirls than remove them. Ill admit, Swirl free and DACP and now vanilla moose is excellent but tough to remove swirls by hand. Are you using a sealer polymer to shone the cars up for the last step? I know some polyners will work well with this method.
Man how exacly do you do the hand technique? Whats the idea behind it. Just curious.

Ryan-if you do a search of detailing by hand in either the autopia university or detailing forum, you will find a lot.
I've never had a problem removing swirls by hand. I don't use foam hand pads though since you cannot apply even pressure. I use terry cloth towels folded into 1/8ths size and refold for every new section I work. I can maintain even pressure and the deep nap of the towels keep the product from loading up.

detailbarn, I am sorry this is off topic but..
I used to drive for my brother owner of "Intercity Lines" car carrier. I used to pick up Lambos from "Nastassi Racing" in N. Bergan NJ. I once carried Lambos ONE and ONLY 4 valve F.I Countach to Ohio to get the emmisions certificate. Nice people BAD part of town...
