Another miracle performed! How did you like the powergloss? I just got some in but waiting for the right car to use it on.
 
Rey: Thanks bro ;) I love the powergloss! Removes the defects that 106ff don`t remove. Easy to work with ;)
 
You're right, Pirex! You do alot of nasty, dirty cars. The lower panels and tires were filthy. You cleaned it all up nicely. Attacked it with Menzerna and brought out the shine and flakes! Great job! I saw that you used Opt Protectant on the engine. Looks like it gives more of a matte look, like you had on the 1999 white VW. Very nice engine detail! Is that what you used on the VW? All you had listed on the VW was DP Engine cleaner.
 
Oh man, when I saw the after pics, I didn't wanna look back at the befores :p. Great job :D....I see you did another manual transmission car :p
 
Love the V70s, always have! You made that metallic paint SHINE! Such great work as usual...
 
Very nice pirex....yup VW Master! :D

That is one sweet turn around, in one of the before pictures it show's some deep scratches. How deep where they? I love power gloss compound, works wicked oh and if you use it with a cutting wool pad like the Meg's cutting wool pad it works even better. You just have to follow it up with 106FF and depending on the colour perhaps two passes of 106FF.

Really nice turn around pirex, good job bro....oh yea I like the way the engine bay looks, really I like the mate look in the engine bay just the way it should be :righton:

Thank you for sharing with us.
 
Wow bro, you have been busy. She looks outstanding, awesome reflections. Have you tried using PowerGloss and then go to LSP. Try it, it has work out for me on a few vehicles. So you use 303 on the door jams, is that on the steel parts or just the rubber?
You done a awesome turn around, the whole thing looks new again.:applause:
 
alban61: Thanks buddy :D it was a bit filthy yes :p I used Optimum protecant on both cars, just forgott to list it up on the passat. Its a nice produckt, nice and matt finish!

07ImpalaSS: Thanks Bro :)

klumzypinoy: Thanks buddy Im the MANNo need to go back :p

P1et: Thanks bro, the V70s are not bad, I like them to! This was the 2.5 Diesel engine.

Nica: Gracias compañero :D Yeah, the PS side had some bad scratces, the 106FF dident remove them, but powergloss took it :D They were not to bad, you couldent feel everyone with the nail, but 2 or 3. Powergloss removed everything. I will use wool as soon as it comes in the mail :D Can`t wait ;)

Glad you liked it :)

sparkie: hey bro :D Yeah, pretty busy lately ;) I haven`t tried it yet, but I belive it can work! I will try it ;) I spray 303 on the metal and rubber! Makes the metal slick and shiny! Works wounders. Just try it :D Thanks again :)
