Clay isn't there since I threw it out, and believe it or not I ran out of tire shine, can you believe it? :crazy

I accomplished his all without any burns or swirl marks, I'm extremely impressed with my work!

Good looking work you do there... That bike i'm drooling over right now. That color really pops.

I'd like to have me a raked out chopper but there are way to many elderly drivers down here in florida that don't pay full attention to the road half the time. :rolleyes:
 
anyone that uses P&S is ok with me . nice work. that ultracoat polish is good stuff . check out my stash
 
Those are some crazy revs on your rotary. I ususally stay near 1500 for rotary work. Did you have any problems with rapid polish breakdown? It seems that 3500-5000 would create a lot more heat than a regular polish would take. Other than that it turned out great, nice clarity of finish. I like the door shot, very wet and mirrorlike.

Nice work we should really get together soon I have another DC memeber that is coming up from the east bay so that I can work on his Vette......That might be a good time for us to work together....BIGRON...I was the one that turnerd Dolan on to P&S we have a big local supplier here....I don't talk to much about them here as they are not a sponsor.....They do have some products that I have not found anywhere else that are about as good as it gets.

Well I wasn't quite sure where I should of started at, so I thought it was a good base point. The UCP isn't a really abrasive polish, so I figured it would work. I'm not surw which pads he had either, he just gave me what he "thought" was his light cutting pad, and I went to town with it. I'm happy with the results though.

Dave, now that I've got a new DD, I'll make sure we get together sometime! I need to do the interior next, so just shoot me an email and let me know the date!
