I did this detail for a friend of mine who wanted his truck polished up and sealed for the summer. Nothing too extreme. The great thing was that it was prime time to test out my new Griots Garage 6" RO polisher. Great tool, with solid build, I highly recommend it to other people looking for a new RO polisher!

The paint was a medium. I used a polishing pad and a medium polish to take care of the swirls.

Nice job, and great attention to detail. Those wheel wells look new.

Nice comeback, it was pretty nasty in the befores.

The customer was a good friend of mine. Having him snap a few interior pics shouldn't be a problem
