My first attempt at using the PC

[2StepsAhead]

Got my new PC in the mail for x-mas and decided I wanted to test it out on a friends car, my buddies 2003 Impreza RS was going back from its lease in a few weeks so we figured hey, why not?

Thanks guys, unfortunately I don't have any full shots of the car after it was polished/waxed....only have shots of it before the wash.

Seems like you're on the way to machine polishing! Great turnaround. Have you removed all the swirls? Or is it more like 95% swirl removal? I'm going to begin my first PC polishing after the winter, after all the snow removal and salt and everything in New York.

In the sunlight I don't see any marring left besides some good sized scratches, think I might need something with a little more cut or a rotary for those though, but I heard that I need some better lighting to see ALL the swirls so I'm sure its more like 90% or so.

Nah, they are going to turn their minimum wage goons loose on it and undo all that hard work.
