PIC HEAVY
This is my step moms car. This car has NEVER been detailed. She took it through the auto car washes here regularly. Down here the teenagers in the trucks mud alot and take them through those washes. Well, the paint tells the rest of the story.
Some recent touch ups were done with the rotary.
The initial correction was done with a PC7424. This was before I got my rotary. This past week I came behind with the rotary and got these photos. She had taken it through an auto car wash once since I detailed it and it put some nice scratches that required the wool...
There is some orange peel still left over, but without a paint gauge I am not going to touch it.

It was on the house. My dad said I could have some, so why not. Not my favorite, but it was a good drink.
