And a roughed up 2001 Mazda Millenia had there first encounter and kicked off the 2009 detailing season!!



First off it was washed by the pull through (too ****ing cold and its not like it could make it any worse).



Then the fun started.

So I busted out the big guns - SSR 2.5 and a freshie fresh orange pad. Oh yeah, mated a new Flex 3401 VRG!!!! Speed 5.

I kept the PC with 4 inch pads for spot buffing and tight spots.

No 50/50 shots as the sun wasnt great to show the difference. So after that I moved on to SSR 1 and fresh white pad.

Now some sun shots after the two step polishing (no lsp or sealent at this time) ((Hooters for the win)).

So after all of that work and it was a lot of work, let me tell you about the difference between the Flex and Porter Cable 7424. It was easier to get better results for sure. After a small learning curve. Even after a whole car I could still learn more over the next couple of cars. This polisher really bites and just works awesome. It is heavy and my arms still hurt from man handling it. Overall it is the best money I have spent on my car since buying the Speed. Not much more I can say that hasnt already been said and the pictures speak for themselves I think.



Well thats my story and Im sticking to it. Thanks for looking and listening.
 
Making me want to go all out and buy the full Poorboy's line. I bought a gallon of Meguiars 105 so I need to find someone to buy some from me at a low cost. I cant find the 205 locally anywhere. Wish I could trade for some 105 with someone.



Anyhow. Thats a nice looking car not to mention it's 8 years old. Very cool. The girlfriends Subaru is about to get it's first heavy detail tomorrow if work, weather and time permits.
