One of my brothers mates travelled to england to buy this car last week and he'd asked me to "de-swirl" it. I'd asked my brother how bad it was and he said it wasnt too bad...fair do's i thought, so i got to work on it once i got home from work about 5:30pm last night (fri night), I finally finished at HALF PAST TWO AM, and i had to be up at 7 for work again today! lol



This car i can quite confidently say had been a car wash and brush cleaned car all its life and i very much doubt it had ever been polished, the paint was really dry and there was ALOT of heavy scratches, making the swirls the least of my worries..



so i washed, clayed and dried, and under the 500W halogen lights, this is what i could see....

yep, all pc work, although there are some defects that the PC could not correct (mainly on the roof) so i'll have to fix them with the rotary at some point, (i left it at work so couldnt do it on fri :hairpull )
 
Thanks for the comments!



did one pass at speed 2, then one at speed 4 then a couple on speed 6, some areas needed 2 attempts to get rid of all the scratches, but they came out eventually :clap:
