    Hey guys, finally getting off my lazy butt and decided to post a few details i've done over the past month.

    So on to the first one, a beautiful obsidian black Wrx was handed off to me, this detail was dropped off in the wee morning and wasn't finished till late late at night! This detail took around 15 hours to accomplish.

    On initial inspection, the paint of the vehicle looked like it was in average condition, till the previous coats of protection were taken off, then the true story was told.

    Multiple people used this car as a door stop :doh:(one of many)

    I happy you made it out alive, was the polish hard to remove without marring the paint

    That looks good! The paint looks really black as opposed to it being gray. How was the paint? I worked on a same car with a different color and the paint was a PITA!

    combo I used for subaru paint (I have one myself, so I know :) ) green polishing pad from DD and some P085RD menzerna. Works great.

    great job btw,

    Removing the polish wasn't difficult at all. I had no problems with this clients paint! I keep on reading about everyone's horrible experience with subaru paint and I absolutely had no issues with it! It was extremely soft and I only used a B&S pad with m105 to achieve a proper cut and finished with a white/m205.
