    this car was a pleasure to work on. the paint work was in pretty decent condition with minor swirling. the biggest problem was wet sanding marks that hadnt been buffed out by the body shop. all in all this car came out very nice.. sorry i didnt get many pics of the befores.. my old canon G2 has battery issues and died on me after i snapped a pic of the car when it arrived early this morning. but plenty of afters for you

    wash: Karcher w/ foam cannon, Adams Car Wash, Deionized Water

    Polish: Menz 106 w/ white pad

    Engine: Foamy Engine Brite, CD2

    wheels & tires: Wheel Magic, Various Brushes, Adams VRT, CD2 sprayed in wheel wells

    Exhaust Tips: Adams Metal Polish 1 & 2

    Interior: Vacuumed and wiped down, vents brushed, leather cleaned and conditioned (no pics, sorry)

    LSP: Swissvax Concorso

    1 before pic of the swirling.. very minor.. the whole car was like this.. nothing serious

    thanks. i wanted to take pics throughout the process to show all the correction, but the camera was charging til after i was done polishing pretty much.. there was a nice bird crap etching in the trunk that took a couple passes, but its all gone now.. that woulda been nice to be able to show..
