    Harbor Freight Rotary

    Harbor Freight in Lilburn, outside of Atlanta has tons of rotary polishers for $34.99, $29.99 if you have a coupon. If it only lasts long enough to do one car I'll be happy. :waxing:

    Added Fiberglass Eyelids

    Installed some fiberglass eyelids last night. Contour's headlights are notorious for turning yellow and hazy, especially near the top, which these help to cover. I think the Duplicolor matched pretty darn good. My fingers are tired from all the sanding and polishing, but the finish matches...

    2003 Trailblazer

    This was a quick detail on my little sister's 2003 Trailblazer, nice little SUV. She said she was falling out of love with it, so I said "bring it over!" There some swirls, but we opted to leave them be for now, as they were not too bad and are hidden by the light color. I was pretty happy...
