Here is my original post on another forum: S2KI - S2000 Forums -> Lend me your ears and two cents please... Ok, Im detailing an 03 Berlina S2000. Paint is in ok shape, swirls are coming out with PC, white pad + Menz 106FF no problem. However, here's my problem... ...sap, or maybe sugar...

Had the pleasure of working on this beautiful old car for a repeat client of mine. The car is a garage queen of sorts and isn't driven often but don't let that fool you, there was A LOT of correction needing done. The finish was rough and needed claybarred twice to get it feeling good enough to...

Had the joy of doing this car over two days and logged about 12-14 hours on it. The finish had quite a bit of swirling, micromarring, fading, etc. It took quite a bit of polishing to get everything back to how it should be. Ive been looking forward to this car for awhile and it did not...

This car was brought to me by a friend of mine's mom. It's an 08 I believe and overall in semi-decent condition. There was the usual moderate swirling, marring, and what not. However, this one presented a particular challenge. The owner used an ice scraper all over the body of the car and left...

Today I had the pleasure of working on a 2008 Infiniti G37S owned by a dentist in Dayton. He got to the house around 9:30 this morning and we promptly did a thorough walk-around to inspect the car. The car was bought used with ~2000 miles on it and wasn't in bad shape at all (compared to some...

I have a friend of mine who needs a restoration detail on a black Datsun 240Z ('73). Im active on this site and do tons of work for people but am on the other side of the country so I told him I would look into some people Im familiar with to find him a good detailer in the area who won't rip...

So over the past little bit since I've been home from school Ive extensively cleaned the outside of my car. Now, it's NEVER been terribly dirty at all as Im VERY ocd about how my car looks (not to mention I believe my car is one of my best advertising avenues). Anyways, I went over with products...

So yesterday I went down to Georgia (2 hour trip one way) to detail 3 cars for a repeat customer of mine. They were a repainted S2000, a 06 Si Coupe, and a PT cruiser. I did complete paint correction on the Si and S2000 and a base detail on the PT. We went down there two years ago and I washed...

Hey guys- Did some work on a members '03 Berlina S2000 today. He was looking for someone who did good work, but also wanted to be taught some things so he can better do the work himself for times to come. I was more than willing to oblige, and had a great time doing it. :) Anyways, like I...

Today I did a detail on an '06 Laguna Blue Pearl S2000. It was in decent shape when I got it, but it did have a fair amount of swirls and it needed clay barred. Materials used: PC 7424 Poorboy's SSR1.0 w/ CCS Orange Pad Menzerna 106FA w/ CCS White Pad Detailers Domain Microfiber Towels...

Hey guys- Detailed an 03 Berlina on Friday that had some serious swirls/marring going on. I corrected this with Poorboy's SSR2.5, SSR1.0, and Manzerna 106FA. Followed up with Meg's NXT and Lusso Oro on top. My helper for the day, my Border Collie, T-Bone: Before shots: Before...
