Many thanks Nick, I couldn't have done it without your advice and expertise. This project meant a lot to me since it is my very first car and it has a very high sentimental value to me. You are the man! Im the MAN

Thank you kindly. Thank you. Not everyday someone works on a Saturn. Absolutely! I don't have any dings on the polymer parts. I have a tiny dent on the hood and a few on the roof. I like to be unique that's why I wanted to show people that a 23 year old car can still look good if...

Yes that is exactly what I see with a lot of S-series cars still on the road today. Most people drive their Saturns into oblivion. It is even more rare to find a first generation, let alone, first year model on the roads. I had previously polished up 1/2 of the car and applied Pinnacle...

Thank you for all the kind words everyone. I guess part of the reason it looked good to begin with is that my parents had only used it on weekends for the first 13 years. It is also garaged at home and I don't drive it very often even though it is my DD. I work from home so I don't have to...

Plastic panels. I love them as they are very light, and are for the most part, dent proof. Only noticeable problems you will see are the door gaps getting bigger during the cold season, thus you will get more road and wind noise in the cabin. The warm weather will stretch the doors back up...

Thank you. Honestly, it was a scary project for me because my DeFelsko paint gauge could only measure about 40% of the car since the panels are polymer. The only things it could measure were the hood, roof, and truck deck. The rest was a leap of faith and using the least aggressive product.

Thank you. I put in nearly 50 hours into this baby. A lot of time was taken during the orange peel removal as I didn't feel like sanding the paint so I had to use the CarPro Denim pads to remove it slowly, but surely.

Here's the story of my ride. My parents and I are the proud owners of this 1991 Saturn SL2. They had bought it 23 & 1/2 years ago from the showroom floor. It came with a twin cam 1.9 liter motor with 124hp at the crank. I started driving it myself when I was 17 and in my last semester of...

Just, WOW! I take at least a full hour to wash a car that size.

Awesome work Mike. Hope to be as good as you are one day. :props:

The best part was the guy answering questions. Though I will say the guys in the Dodge SRT4 were being douches to begin with. I might have laughed in my car, but definitely would not try to embarrass the driver like they did.

Haha, I'm glad I could. :Picture:

Here's a great example of how to destroy a nice looking sports car. REMOVED ---INAPPROPRIATE LANGUAGE.

I had my Nanoskin medium grade pad and it marred pretty bad on black paint. The little pinholes are normal as I have the pads, as well as the sponges, and clay towels. They don't change how the Nanoskin work so it is just cosmetic. I've had fine clay mar paint from pushing down too hard on my...

That polished paint must have given the car an extra 10 hp, j/k. Well, it was a nice looking Integra. I just hate the ones with really huge and tall spoilers and oversized body kits. Just my style I guess.

Great job on the Kia! My client just came to pick up his red Mini Cooper tonight and was blown away from his car being cleaned and sealed with the Klasse Twins. KAIO works great with a green LC light polishing/finishing pad. It was enough to remove a good amount of swirls and remove a quite a...

Amazing work as usual Tato. Have you followed up with any owners of cars you have coated regarding waterspotting? I am still having issues with waterspots on PBL coated cars I have done. I have put CarPro Spotless to good use this season since we are in the rainy season in Thailand right now...

Re: Mike Phillips - Vehicle Inspection Form - Version 2 Thank you for writing up a new one Mike. I'd like to have a copy of it please. You are totally the MAN! Helping out all the detailers in the world.

Absolutely beautiful work again. White is such a hard color to work with because it is so hard to see the scratches! I've polished out three white cars so far and I do not enjoy it, haha. I coated two out of the three I have done and as you have said, even white colors can improve with a...
