    Hello everyone. I haven't been around much but plan to. I wanted to start off with my very first correction, my wife's 2007 Cobalt. I know this isn't an exotic or luxury car that most of you are used to seeing or working on, but for my first time machine polishing I thought I would start out with one of our own vehicles. I did this correction quite some time ago and have had a little more practice since then. Please excuse the products used. Anyway, hope you enjoy!
