Sorry for the crappy pics.. I really am no photographer as you will see. I tried to be cognizant of the befores, I got a couple as you will see.

Bro that is some great work on that car! You did absolutely amazing work on the scratches. How long did it take on the trunk lid? Bet she was really happy with you and your work! Man the Surf City line rocks doesn't it.

 

[Rsurfer]

Pc or rotary for those nasty scratches? How does the DG901 and ARO work for you? Isn't ARO pretty strong stuff even at just 2 oz? I personally would never put ARO in my wash bucket. You do awesome work!!:cheers:

Thanks my friend... the trunk lid took 2 passes with the SIP/SA3 combo and then 1 pass with the 106ff/360 combo..

Ohhh, yeah.. they are just consistent... Nice line up for sure. I was really impressed with the dash dressing... I can see myself trasitioning from 303 to this.....the finish was very comparable, SC is a tad more matte...

The max metal worked soooo easy.. it's thin so you think "this isn't going to work well and then bam.. gone

PC, on those ugly suckers!!!

I use 3 buckets..one for the belt line and below, one for all above the belt line and one for my rinse...I use 1oz ARO in the wash bucket for below the belt line and 1oz of ARO in the rinse bucket - I have 4gall of water in each bucket.... It works well, in the bucket for below the belt line I end up using the remaining mixture on my wheels

Thanks..

Nice detail there, those scratches were nasty but you sure turned the scratches to smooth, slick paint surface. Well done, you sure know how to celebrate too ...oh and nice sigars.

Thank you for sharing.

 

[zaxjax]

Fantastic results! We must be related, because after a detail I have Guinness from my bar on draught. No more bottles for me!

 

[alban61]

Wow! Great job on that Aura! Swirl and scratch-free, and proven with that Brinkmann! Awesome reflections. Need to get me some SCG Max Metal too!
You let the Collinite haze up, spray DG951 on top and buff off together? Wasn't sure if that's what you meant.
Great all-around detail job!

Thanks Nica - means a bit seeing as how I admire your work!! By the way I am loving your new avatar...

I was VERY pleased with how the scratches came out.......and with a PC!!

Woo hoo..you are my hero...So you are right, we are related so we'll be drinking Friday night.... Nothing like a Guiness the way it's supposed to be and you my man are living well!!!

Thanks Alban....The Brinkman is a handy little tool...less cumbersome than a floor light I've realized...

Ohh yeah, the max metal is awesome..I used it again with some 000 steel wool on a couple things I also threw a little wd40 in the mixx and it was awesome... sorry no pics

Yup, 476 hazed up and did a spray of 951 on top just prior to buffing...1st panel or two may need 1.5-2 sprays but after the mf of your choice is "primed" you will need less AW..about 1 spray per panel. Makes removal of a heavy paste just a little easier and adds a little extra bling....

Wow nice attention to details! The car looks awesome Nice celebration as well

 

[Gary Sword]

Everything looks great Motorcity except I can't stand the smell of a cigar.

 

[AL417]

Very nice job on that Buick. Now it's ready for winter with Collinite on it. Thoses were some nasty scratches that you got out. Nice job on the interior too!

Good beer but I'm with Gary on the cigar smoke.

 

[supercharged]

Looks like the job well done! Love those detailed engines!
