Black Honda S2000, worst paint ever! Heaps of pics.

the xmt3/ yellow shouldnt have given you that much trouble. Ive been having great success with it at speed 5, steady pressure of around 10lb at a slower speed moving the buffer around.


Good work. :)
 
Yeah I wanna know how long it took as well. With a DA I was thinking somewhere between 6-8 hours? Either way you did a killer job and hope you get some compensation : D
 
I cant remember clearly, but I think it was about 7-8 hours..
 
Wow I never realised how many replies there were to this thread lol :)
 
Wow awesome job man! I am twice your age and kind still afraid to use a machine...

Get some business cards like the others say and start saving the money for college or whatever....

Why is there red coming through was the car repainted?
 
Ugh...way to ruin the ride quality and handling on an amazing car with those ugly rims.

Not your fault though, just thinking out loud :D

Great job on the detail and props to you for doing such a good job being 15 years old!
 
Sorry to bring a thread back from the dead, but what color S2K is this? Is this the Berlina Black that has the red metal flake? I've got a repaint I need to do, and I love red and black, so this would be awesome if it is.

One of my neighbors drove past and told me that the car looked amazing, and that he had never seen a shine like that, then some other dude asked me if I had a card, unfortunately I don't, I'm only 15.

The 15 year old kid is now at least 18 years old...

Doesn't look like in all the pages and years he picked a brandable name for detailing?

Fantastic work there. :) (Even if it's an old thread, I havent seen it before :P)

Nice job for a 15 yr old kid. You have a future in the detailing business but finish school first.
