I'm relatively new to detailing, this is my fourth real detail. It's my dad's car and was usually garaged until I bought my car and now it sits outside most of the time. I felt bad kicking my dad's car out of the garage so I did a full detail minus engine bay (I don't have the products required for that yet). Using my limited supply of products I think it turned out pretty good. I've got this turtle wax buffer I used with this "polishing pad" to attempt to take out the minor swirls. It got about 50% of the swirls out after a lot of work. The Porter Cable is on the way (Christmas).
