I used a pc. The SSR 2.5 did a great job on the swirls and blemishes :bigups. Like they say the biggest influence is on the prep. I spend roughly 9.5 hours and I was sore the next day :crazy . But I got a very nice $25 tip for my extra efforts. It's her Valentines day gift to her husband. :bigups

Here's a before picture (I didn't get good outside ones, since I started early in the morning while it was still dark, so this shot was in my garage).

Ah man that looks great....

9.5 hrs.....my god....

how long did the exterior take?

I'd estimate 7.5 hours. The interior was fairly clean thankfully. This was an 8 step process ...

1. Wash 45 min
2. Clay 60 min
3. ReWash 15 min
4. Polish 2.5 hours
5. Clean 1 hour
6. Glaze 30 min
7. Seal 30 min
8. LSP Topper 1 hour (Collinite is a little tough to apply/remove

Call me a perfectionist, but who isn't on this site. :lmfao

I do the best I can and that leads to more jobs and more work (I mean fun). Like they say detailing is my golf, except I have fun and get paid, not spend $40 bucks and get frustrated. LOL

It's jobs like these having me ready to buy a rotary very soon to speed up the prep work. :cool

:bye
