    Danny -
    I am also so sorry that drunk tinters on crack scratched your beautiful Mustang. It is hard to believe that they could not feel the belt buckle/s touching the paint of your beautiful car.

    Outstanding work with your Flex Rotary !!! I am so proud of you !!!! You totally dialed the finish back in - I bet it is blinding in direct sunlight !

    Well, I hope those A$$Clowns have Insurance that will pay for your damages. Perhaps if they start to renege on paying you back, you can sic your Insurance people on theirs, or maybe you have a good friend who is a city/county Inspector, who can go over and mess with them.
    Your great before and after going to their shop Pics will be instrumental in proving your case if needed.

    You are doing just fabulous work on that car as well as your previous black one !

    Good luck with this !

    Dan thanks man I actually got a full refund back from the manager yesterday which I am happy with. I did write a bad review on yellowpages.com but other than that I left it alone.

    Well today I decided to clean the Mach and then proceed to do the finishing stage with Scholl Concepts S40 on the FLEX 14-2 using a 3M Perfect it III backing plate and 5.5" LC Hyrotech Flat Crimson Pad, since I left off with S17+. Here are the results after 3 hours of polishing. I have to say S40 is alot better then Menzerna PO85RD the look left is deeper instead of just extreme clarity, which you also get. Not only that you achieve results far faster than 85RD which I have come to learn by personal experience and from others that Scholl Concept polishes correct extremely well and achieve results in far less time than other traditional polishes. I'll try and get some sun pics up tomorrow. Excuse my nasty garage.

    Excellent correction work! I thought the marring on my fenders was bad after I got my tints installed but they looked nothing like that. Nice to see you were able to get everything corrected and back to perfect, nice job!

    Clarity is unbelieveable - bet it is blinding out in the sun, right ???

    Thanks Dave, and yeah the morons really did a number on it. The only good thing is I received a full refund back, bad thing is I have to take it to get re done again elsewhere. But I did find a guy who owns his own shop and does the installs alone, he has great reviews on google. I went and spoke with him about what happened and, he even suggested if I have any large microfiber towel or towels to leave them in the the Mach when I take it, this way he can use them when he has to lean up against the vehicle while cutting the tint so he doesnt marr the finish.

    Dan thanks man I have had done a few more corrections now and feel much more confident using it. Watching Daves and Bryan Jars rotary use videos helped me out alot in the beginning, as well as reading the rotary use guide on Detailing World. I will try and get some sun pics up today:)

    Here are the sun shots, polished the door sills, trunk, and gas cap areas today with Autoglym Super Resin Polish, also did a Prima Slick wipe down to help a bit with the dust and pollen attraction. I also put a coat of Opti-Bond on the Nittos.

    Looking great Danny!

    If you ever decide to sell that thing, I call dibs. I couldn't find one with a 5-speed when I was looking, which is why I ended up with the Cobra.
