Pretty sweet looking Civic, not a fan of those headlight cover things, but those ones look pretty good! Awesome work on that paint as well!

Awesome work, the car looks incredible! I might have to dust off the old (and I mean old) Cyclo I have and get some polishing pads for it.

Hey guys thanks for the comments and I appreciate them very much . Today I have been busy running some errand and detailing a MX5, just found some time to reply you guys.

....Yeah, the Cyclo is definitely more aggressive than the PC! An marring from the yellow pads on the Honda paint? I didn't get any on an S600 I did this past week (using Hyper Compound) but Mercedes paint is a lot harder than Honda paint.

Hi Scott, I did not find much marring from the yellow pads on the Honda paint, even if there was some, it was easily taken care by the polishing step.

Nice fix! I bet the owner was speechless.

The owner called me a few days after I have detailed the car, he told me he actually refused to drive the car out when it was raining

justin30513 and LightngSVT - I share the same feeling as Scottwax, the cyclo definately works better in removing the defects as compare to a DA machine. The only thing that I will complain is the weight of the cyclo, can be quite tiring when working on the vertical panels.

Be a little more careful how you shoot your pictures next time. You got lucky this time that nothing was dangling, but it was a close one...

Don't worry bro blackf0rk, I do make sure everything is kept properly before the shot was taken :grinno:

wow, nice transformation!



Did you show the owner proper car cleaning techniques to avoid swirling this bad in the future?

Oh yes, not only did I show him the proper way to maintain the car but also gave him one whole shopping list of detailing products to get :laugh: .
