This car was pretty swirled when it came to me. After 6 hrs. of work it was 90% perfect.

The befores are HIDEOUS! But the afters...hmm, just plain sexy. :D



What are your thoughts after the second run with Wolfgang products?
 
My thoughts on the Wolfgang are very similar my initial impression. I am still trying to get used to the thickness of the Pre-Wax. It gives good depth and comes off very nicely. The Sealant is so easy to work with. It gives great slickness and shine.



It's now my product of choice on anything black. :cool:
 
That is a massive improvement! :up



I hope the owner tossed several bags of hundreds into your trunk as a thank-you for rescuing his car from swirl city. :lol

I am very flattered.



Too bad I only got $100. I'm thinking I should have charged more...
 
6 hours for $100? Yeah, you should have charged more. Without the swirls, the paint looks a lot blacker! That has to be worth more than $100. ;)
 
I posted these pics on a few local car sites and people are going crazy wanting their cars done. I think I am going to up the price, but at the same time, I am not the fastest detailer in the world.



I was really surprised at the amount of oxidation on this car after only 17,000 miles.



The guy bought this car used, so there is no telling what the original owner did or didn't do to it.
 
Looks good but the after shots were different angles than the before shot plus it looked like it was taken at dusk so its not that easy to compare. I am not doubting that its 100x better but if you can take some shots at the same angle it would help. It looks like you have been the only one reporting wolfgang, i can't wait to use it. Right now the only thing that has touched my car is SMR 9 which now i read is only good for filling :mad: and not really removing the swirls, and klasse. But i like the presentation and what wolfgang promises in term of depth and long lasting protection.
 
Well, after 6 hrs. the sun will tend to move on you. The after pictures were taken at 5 pm which is about 2 hrs. before dusk. The 2 trunk shots are pretty good for comparison.
 
Excellent work! you should have easily been paid 2x what you charged.



I also wrote a mini review on WG. Great product, super easy to use, doesnt stain trim. But wont elimiate the use of carnuba toppers for that last bit of "pop" from your cars paint.

Do you have any pictures of the oxidation? I just find it so hard to comprehend that a 2-3 year old car with 17,000 miles has oxidation. I rarely see oxidation with modern clearcoats anymore. I just think it is interesting.

Yeah, the term "oxidation" is grossly mis-used and inaccurate in most cases. People use it far too liberally . (ZaneO, I'm not knocking you. Your effort looks great.)



The last oxidation I witnessed was on a car sitting in the boneyard.
