    first of all, I am a newbie..... this is typically the 8th car i have detailed, all of them are my friends and relatives.....

    Anyway, I was asked by a good friend of mine to detail his girl friend's car, as he wants is GF's car look like a new car.

    Upon inspection, this car sucks, i couldn't even count how many scratches it has, almost the worst "newer" car i have seen.

    I wasn't able to take much pictures, I didn't take many after shots, i really wanted to take some after shots under sun, however, I needed to return the car by the next morning, I had just the exact time for detailing, but not picturing....:mad0260::mad0260::mad0260::mad0260:

    I see what you mean but it did come out nice for the time you had...At least you tried not to rush it to much. That would have caused you more problems...I say it was good practice for you....Way to go...:thumb:

    Thanks,
    I didn't want to go with so agressive combo to rush, afraid to cause CC failure.....

    Thanks bro,


    Yeah, I love doing black ones
    this is the first black car i worked on, and the satisfaction i gained in doing on a Black car is more than any others.....

    Thanks Denzil

    Thank you very much

    It seemed to me i feel i put on a lot too......
    The flex rocks, coming from PC, a total different story!

    Thanks,
    As I said, it is a totally different experience compare with PC, it is way less shaky, powerful and the handle is nice too.

    Thanks,
    Maybe it is a 2006 one, I don't know either...
