    I received a phone call from this client who was referred to me from someone that follows my work on the forum! He was taking delivery of the car a week out from when we spoke, once the car was delivered it was brought straight to me. Hands down one of the worst cars I have seen in a while but its cars like these that make a true paint correction bring it back to life. This car took 4 steps to get it back to perfect, interior, trim, and engine were also completed! Enjoy the photos.

    Wow that is some absolutely stunning work! What foamer do you use to get those ridiculously thick suds?

    Those reflection shots are as nice as your Caddy! Without all that pesky wetsanding of course. Nice save Jimmy. Looks like you're giving the new van a shakedown as well.

    What process did you use to bring back those dead trims?
