lookin better then new and


MEG's #7 is the BEST thats what the pros use. FTW

 

Wet sand the whole vehicle. It'll look 100X better.

 

Yeah, #7 added a little more depth, but I *could* have gone without it personally. It did not change the appearance that much. Swirl X has quite a bit of oils in it to enrich the paint well enough to go right to a LSP.


Was a little difficult to work with as well, but results were good so I don't mind!

Wet sand the whole car? Orange peel is not a big deal to me, I will not worry about it....

 

I'm sure the officer driving by in the 5th picture down was eyeing your nice shiny ride too.

 

I need to learn how to detail....

 

looks great! wanna do mine now?

 

damn that looks good. nice job.

 

Nice job,i do mine w/meg m21 i think is the best wax there is.

 

nice job indeed, i need to do this as well

 

now thats how you treat a car =)

 

lookin good!

 

Looks awesome Any direct sun pics for full potential of showing off your hard work?

 

Sadly no direct, as the sun was in an awkward position when I took the pics in the evening. I will try to get some shots with my xenon spotlight (kind of imitates the sun, shows everything), but can't promise how nice they will look!

But in the sun, the paint is clear. No swirls. Only some random deeper scratches here and there. Looks great.

 

Here are three I got with my xenon:

 

good work
do that once a year and your golden

 

For sure, I do detailing as a hobby/side job so its no problem for me!

Here are some previous cars I have done:

G8 GT:







Prius:








Scion tC

Before:


After:






Not a shabby "hobby" to have! Pays off!

 

Looks awesome, I'm a detail hobbyist myself and plan on doing this pretty soon. I got the car(BSP) with swirls on it from the stealership, seems to be a common problem since they hire amatuer washers instead of pros to save money. One question, do you use a original california car duster on your car? I'm worried once I do the detail, it will just creat swirls again. Great job btw

 

Very nice, a little off topic, but what kind of Konigs are those on your car? Size and model? Thanks!

 

Nice to see a fellow Meg. user. I'm glad I'm not the only one that spends hours and hours detailing my car.

Black shines the best so it's always a plus. Keep up the good work.
