After asking tons of question and advice from Totoland, i started my first car detailing today. No before shots because car was parked in my garage, quite dark and i didnt have time to go buy a 1000 watt halogen light. Car didnt have heavy swirls but i was very happy with the results.

Afterwards, i can still see some swirls on the roof. Pictures are without the klass sg, it was dark. I took these pics after washing the polishes off and drying. I ll take some pictures tommrow morning. Btw, i took the wing off to clean it, but didnt have time to put it on.

thanks to totoland.

Very Nice........

I love that setup. Its the same as mine :)

Except I have SIP, instead of IP. And I have Poorboys Red Wax to top it off.

O, I notice the Super sticker hidding up on the top. You can't complain with the results from Menzerna.........

If you take your time with the PC, your bound to get most of the swirls out with them combo. For a PC, thats pretty darn good

No, Just gotta work the polish in slowly...........

If it is on your sideskirt. I bet it is deeper than your normal swirls. I only use orange pads, because the amount of swirls on my car and other cars are small. Because I always take care of my dad's, mom's, sister's and mine :)

Yeah it's deeper then my normal swirl. How long does it take you to polish/wax through so many car? I started at 9:30am till 8pm. I took like 1 hour break though. My back was killing me doing the lower bottom of the car.

If the scratch is catching your fingernail. Then its too deep for you to remove with the PC............

The MENZERNA Polishing Compounds are the best when it comes to correcting the paint surface. Looks Great.
