Impressive work, that was quite the nasty job! I can't even begin to imagine taking a seat in that thing everyday in the condition it was in, repulsive.

Sweet car! Definitely on my list of cars to own someday (among many others) Nice work on the clean up :props:

Nice work indeed. How long did the job take you?

Sure, no problem and thanks! Your holograms look like what was on my hood before the most recent "work". M205 and a white pad took those out just fine too.

Hah. This is my daily, it will get a good set of summer tires eventually :) Besides, I have a '99 Miata that is my autocross/track car :props:

I am in a similar position as you are, working in IT and trying to do something I love part time (maybe full time?). Have you tried going to a bank to open a business account yet? I would imagine you would be able to get a business credit line opened up no problem, assuming your personal credit...

Funny that this thread popped up. I just went through this exact same experience with my own car last week. Took it to a guy to remove some door dings and he put scratches back into the finish attempting to rotary polish over the fixed dings :mad...

Thank you sir. I wanted an all season tire that I knew worked good in Colorado. I had them on my old e90 BMW (avatar) and liked them a lot with that car. I am thinking about getting a set of separate summer wheels/tires, however. Thanks! Yep Orient Blue is great, took me a while to find this...

Got the other blemishes all fixed up with a white LC pad and M205. Re-glazed the areas and re-sealed. Before: After: Before (the small chips in the clear have been there a while): After: Before: After: Back outside, this time with a quick dressing of the trim and tires :) Did a...

Sorry to hear about the job :( I echo what other people have said in that it might have been a blessing in disguise. Good luck with your newly found business, sounds like you are on the right track. Website looks good, I am also a fan of fast and simple to navigate.

I called him to discuss the issue. Basically let him know his buffer/pad/technique or something was causing damage to the paint. He offered to bring it back and he would fix it, but I really don't want my car to see that buffer again :) He did good with the dent removal (and good prices), so...

Yes I know. This was an ongoing detail job being that it was my own car, I hadn't gotten to the trim/tires yet. I just posted to display the polishing outcome since some others asked in a different thread :buffing:

Well that shine didn't last long. Took my car in to get a few door dings taken out by a guy that was recommended as the best in the biz at door ding removal. I cringed when he pulled his Makita rotary off the hangar with a crusty looking black foam pad, squirt some polish on the door panel and...

Great work, truck came out looking sweet!

Thank you!
