First off, let me apologize for the pictures, I realized about 30 minutes into my 45 minute drive to the detail that I had forgotten my dslr so I was stuck using my iphone. Not really a whole lot to photograph anyway but a sexy 2010 Audi S4. Just thought I'd post some pics for yall to enjoy. Customer took extremely great care of this car. It doesn't get driven much (only had 7600 miles on the clock) as he travels for business quite a bit and drives rentals when doing so. He just wanted to get rid of some pesky swirls and amp up the gloss. BTW, it was 92 degrees when I was doing this and over the 7.5 hrs I was working on it, I drank a gallon of water and never peed once. Made me respect you guys down South even more!

LOL! Well, it was worth the sacrifice! Looks nice. Also, what happened to the rear valence on the car?



Rear valence was taken off because he was rear ended, new one was in the garage being attached by the owner after the car was detailed.
