Wow, what a difference! Could similar results be done with a PC or UDM? That is amazing how you took it from cloudy to shine. The WDGS looks great, I love that stuff.
 
Tandis: I liked it to :p Its the beading of the menzerna, i rinsed the car after jusing SIP, before sealent.

joe.p: I know what you mean :D

zo6-goose: Thanks bro ;)

Reddwarf: Thanks buddy. :) On the first 50/50 I used pc with pinnacle 360, and it worked. But it took alot more time, and thats not good. So I switced to the metabo. So you can get the same results with a pc, but it will take you mutch more time. I love WDGS to :D

Thanks for the feedback. After using XMT 3 this weekend I'm so impressed I want to order the 360.
 
ITS ALIVE.....

Pro work Pirex, love those Extreme makovers
 
Well done there pirex, you sure brought that paint back to life. Oh I too like the last picture of the beading. Very nice :righton:
 
A job well done!
i am surprised at the top = it looks like it has cc failure, or some serious damage, yet you fixed it. How did you achieve that? I am impressed!!
 
That Golf was really bad. Great job! Keep us updated on DP spray gel tire dressing durability. I really like that dressing myself. By the way, love your teaser beading shot.

Awesome turnaround, Pirex! That was some severe oxidation, and etching! I agree....you made a pink car RED!!
 
I love that beading :D that was a great turn around. Wanna do my Mitsubishi now? ;) she's not that bad, just dull, but not bad like that red Golf. I see a yellow scooter. Is that yours?
 
Thanks buddy :D Yeah, just send it over ;) Its my gf`s. I just drive motorbikes :p
 
WOW!! your brought that thing back from the dead! Great job!
