I did a Pro+ job on the same truck/color last month (super crew version). Brand new, the B pillars were a mess and the paint had surface scratches on every panel. The 3" and the iBrid are definitely handy with this one, with the various angles within each panel. Nice job, Mike, looks great.
A Z06 owner client of mine and Corvette Club member gave me a full bottle since he didn't need it. Never opened it... sitting on the back shelf collecting dust. Always skeptical of any product that makes these types of claims.
Congratulations, Mike! Your advice and instruction continues to make me better at my job everyday. Thanks for all your guidance for this community, professionals and amateurs alike. Looking forward to the show!

Scott, I've been seriously considering this steamer instead of an extractor for carpets and upholstery. What is your process for cleaning the average carpet with this unit? (sorry for getting a little off-topic)
There is information aplenty on this forum and at autogeek.net regarding the proper care of microfiber. The guidelines are different from the care of terry towels. Do not use fabric softener, do not launder with any other type of material (don't wash microfiber towels with terry towels!)...
Not giving up on the gg3, yet. More 3" sanding discs on the way. The lights had more scratches than oxidation, a new challenge for me. The car looks to have gone through 100's of machine car washes in its lifetime. I'll know to schedule more time for similar headlights in the future.
I think that's the problem I had with the Hyundai lens yesterday... more scratches than oxidation. I think they need to be worked with the 500 paper a little longer.
Yeah, the edges were an eyesore. I had already scheduled a re-do (again) next week. I'm going to do edges by hand and block...
Already had a 3m kit in the shop, and bought more papers separately. Sanded with the gg6 and 3" bp... worked a little better, but took a lot of time. The few headlight restorations I've done in the past took an hour total... I spent an hour on just one lens today. The da's just don't seem to...
No compressor. Not sure which way to attack these lights. Initially I even thought that there might be a defect with the Hyundai headlight lens. The gg6 should have plenty of power for sanding headlights, shouldn't it? I may try the 3" bp and attachments on the gg6. Really don't want to waste...
I bought a GG3 specifically for sanding headlights. Used it for the first time today, and I'm pretty disappointed. I knew going in that the gg3 has little power, and is not suited for paint correction, but I assumed it would handle sanding tasks. Did a set a of Hyundai lights today during a...
Nice. I'm using a Mcculloch canister steamer, but I think I could use a little more power. DA upholstery brush is on the list, too. Thanks for the feedback.
