    Great job saving that one DD crew!

    I am looking for some new pads and wondering how did SIP and the orange pad work on that VW clear? Does it have some decent correction potential?

    Still a great job fixing up another detailers work, just think he, previous detailer, thought that was a good/great job!

    I didn't see anything wrong with the before pictures, that metal flake swirl action was pretty happening.
