Excellent work as always. Nice job removing those swirls and getting some nice deep reflections...
 
Looks awsome! You see in your 1/2 & 1/2 shots the huge difference!

Great work!
 
Nice work on the car, I personally love the dark blues when real clean.....just one thing can you post a few more shots next time:D:D
 
Nice work Joy - You certainly do some good work.

I was noticing that there's a lot of orange peel on this car. Are all Infiniti's that OP'ed or has this been resprayed?

Similar to my Murano which is also the same color I have some areas with orange peel like that...
 
I don't think car manufactures can paint a car with out orange peel anymore.:passout: And they don't have a clue when you ask the dealer why....:eek:
 
Wow! What a turn around, that thing was swirl city. Now it looks like glass. Great job. That shot with palm trees on the hood is money!
