    This was taken after polishing the hood with the 85RD/Uber Green combo. I really wish I had a before as this angle was great for pointing out the swirls.

    The rest of the shots were taken at the local touchless wash. It provided the only suitable lighting we could find considering that it was 9:00 PM. :coffee:

    You can see the pearl peeking through the finish on these two.
