Yay black! Got a buddy at work who has had his car at his moms place sitting in a barn and used as the snow commuter in montana for the last 3 years while stationed over seas mom had it detailed a year ago by someone awesome... rotory swirls over the whole thing and super dirty from the shipper shipping it from montana to mississippi.... look forward to cleaned photos to show swirls and scratches and corrected paint photos on saturday.... its pretty dirty other than the swjrls few minor scratches and almost no rock chips... should be a very good turn around knock on wood...

This should be fun it has a lot of bumper dings that im just not going to be able to do anything with...too large to fill with touch up paint. But hes a good dude and after I saw the disco job and how swirled it was I couldent help but help him out. So saturday morning detail session see how much we can knock out and do some education on maintenance and enjoy the nice weather with some adult beverages. Should be a good time. Saturday afternoon finished product will be posted. This will be the worst car I have done to date so bonus for me!

Is there a metallic paint hidden underneath the cool lookin swirls?
Can't wait to see the final pics!

HellaBroke, you live about an hour away from me. I used to live on base over there while I was in the Navy. Shame I wasn't into detailing then because I might could have lined up some side work to pass the time.

I look forward to the finish :xyxthumbs:
 
Sub'ed didn't know they made a awd bu, looking forward to the results!
 
This is definitely not an awd Malibu... kid doesn't know up from down...
Im stationed on CBC right now! and it definitely does help pass the time and cover some extra expenses.
small world!


I apologize for not taking more photos had to cut this short.... total time spent 6 hours with. id say about an 85% correction.... daily driver and driven across country quite a bit some of the rids were not worth taking out... especially since its had at least one hack job rotary buff job before.... and with no meter i didn't feel comfortable pushing it too much
