hope you guys enjoy :dblthumb2:
 
Nice work. Great shots! Have to love M205. That car looks great!
 
Great 50/50 pics, really shows how bad it was.
I can imagine the owner is impressed and happy now!
 
That is some solid work right there! Good choice with the 205 and LC white pads. I used that exact same combo on my 2003 WRX a few weeks ago and it removed almost all the defects being that the paint is so soft. 205/white is a good one step Subaru combo from what I have heard and seen!
 
Very nice work. Looks great. Those are some really nice pictures.

I spy a white X5 and a nice looking S2K in the background.
 
Strong work. My 2012 Impreza is the same color and its amazing how easy Subaru paint swirls.
 
Wow that looks fantastic! I've wanted to do something with my subby same color and if a white pad and 205 does the trick that's excellent!
 
thanks everyone for the comments and compliments...should be alot more of this in the future...i really need to invest in a decent camera though :(

First time working with 205 as well lol But defiantly worked great some areas were corrected with just 1 pass :xyxthumbs:

Also love your RX7 :props: always wanted one :)

X5 is my brothers car the s2k is mine :)

Great work!

Those pics will surely help you get more business!

Im sure they will, word of mouth between friends is already bringing me alot of business, to bad i only have weekends to detail at the moment.

lots of potentials coming up... R8, GTR, A5, RSX, LS :buffing: just need work out dates with these people and there cars

Since the paint is so soft this is a great combo...you defiantly want to start off with the least aggressive products you have in your arsenal when working on this type of paint system.
 
Your friend is a pro for sure with pictures but you sir, you are what made these pictures come alive! Great detail and great documentary on the 50/50 shots.
 
Great Work Sir! :dblthumb2:

Nice before and after shots!


Good looking WRX
