    I guess my work paid off because I got a New Client!!! The owner of the Lincoln LS I did referred me to his brother. He liked my work so they hired me to do the E320.

    The car originally came for a clay+wax but ended up getting a Mini detail with a 1-Step Paint correction, Interior Detail, and Headlight Restoration.

    This car was a Pretty wicked Dark blue.... Looked great to see a dark color thats not "Black".

    I also tried "Hand Waxing" this time... It was cool to try it!!!

    Honestly, after trying the whole hand waxing thing, I feel its a PITA....

    I will stick to the Applicator Pad from now on. lol
