Just to get him to see what his car could look, like I did a little work ;)

I knew I did not have enough supplies to do the entire car, so I took the worst panel and did an OK job... not my best work but enough effort to show him what it could look like. And now... He's dying to get me to finish LOLz



Here are just two pictures he took.

That would be, in his words "When the car was parked at 'the shop' there was a rust bucket (with a loose blue tarp) right next to it. I did not realize that the tarp (when it was windy) was scratching the living hell out of the passenger side door and rear 1/4."

He bought the civic as a shell (orginal body expt hood&f bumper) , and put it all together. from then to now it's such a turn around.



Thanks! He just has to find the time for me to finish it up... I can't wait to get on it. I'll be sure to post up some more pictures.
 
That's the best. I love it when I polish one panel of someone's car and it looks like it was repainted, not matching the rest of the car. It's the best way to get someone to pay you for a full detail. :D
 
Matt, I've been doing that to many people for many years ;)



it's a 95 civic coupe.

Pictures to come... when I finish the car.



thanks
 
Nice job until now mate....It must be an EG ...I can recognize this door handle and the rear window from miles away : )

What is the engine of it???
 
This past Sunday I was able to finish up the car, it came out very very nice!

My aging A95 has been shooting blurry pictures lately :( So out of the 89 pics, two were ok...

But here is the killer part and I'm so damm mad!

I get a email from the owner of the Civic and in it he tells me that at work Tuesday that the trunk and rear bumper have been keyed :MAD: Also says that the scratches are nearly down to metal.

Just had to rant, but here are pictures.... Hopefully one day I can use his camera to take some shots :crossesfingers:







In this picture I still have SSR1 on the fender (slight trails and specs of dust)

 
wow nice results man! I wonder what your process was?? Because I have a black 94 EX Coupe that I want to tackle soon.



I got a bunch of supplies at the moment but not sure where start.



SSR1/2

Optimum Compound

Scratch-X

some meguirars polishes/glazes

porter cable with small/large pads in orange/white/etc

and of course NXT wax
 
Great job. Who keys a 15 year old Civic? That's just awful. Maybe he parked it weird because you fixed up his paint.
