Next up was a 20k mile 2008 Corvette. Unfortunately it didn`t look like it had 20k miles. This one had me a bit worried about finishing on my deadline.

Thankfully the G21 equipped with a BOSS microfiber cutting pad and fast correcting cream nailed it! I also used my Nano with the 12mm attachment and a blue pad combined with Rupes compound.

For finishing I used Rupes Keramik Gloss polish with the G21 and a yellow BOSS finishing pad. Also used the Nano with a yellow Rupes pad for tight areas.

Paint was coated with Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light. Glass and wheels coated with McKee`s.

McKee`s iron remover going to work.

#3 is my favorite so far. Awesome finish. You`re the reason why I`m buying Griot`s Garage Fast Correction Cream and MF pads today.
 
Looks terrific! Showing how focused and streamlined work can get some serious results in a relatively short amount of time.

Glad to see another happy user of Fast Correcting Cream!
 
Sweet Christmas, 8!? I`m going to pay you to record yourself doing paint correction, I need to see what the heck I am doing wrong hahaha .
 
All these CSL jobs and how amazing they look when you are done has inspired me to get CSL and try it on my pickup. I figure its a daily driver and plows and tows the boat, so if I leave few high spots or streaks it wont kill me like it would on the toy car.

Ha-ha. Honestly I am not shooting for some crazy 100% defect removal. The small amount of stuff I would spend time chasing under my lighting wouldn`t be worth the time and extra cost involved. Just a nice thorough cut, polish and coating does wonders and the clients are happy.

Awesome! If you have any questions please feel free to ask
 
Awesome work! I look forward to seeing #4! Is there any reason you didn`t use the G21 on the first two vehicles? That F450 had tons of real estate.

Good question. The f450 only received a one step and to be honest it`s a good comfortable nimble performer. I could of used the g21 but just felt the PC was more comfortable.
