Too many posts to quote, so I will just say that you guys do some seriously AMAZING work:dblthumb2:!!
 
No pro by any means, just like clean swirl free paint on cars, did this for a friends son 2010 Altima because he thought it was clean. PC7424, white polishing pad, Menzerna 2500 then finished with Collinite 845.
 
Not exactly a 50/50, but some experimenting with wet sanding on my 235,000 mile 2003 Bonneville.

wish i could do something about the orange peel... Im sure I used the wrong words there "orange peel"... I think its the actual paint surface and not in the clear so whatever that is called...
 
Just realized I've been lurking here forever, registered almost a year ago and never posted. I've really been slacking on taking pictures the past few months anyway. I'm not a full time detailer, just use it as a hobby that pays the bills and helps me relax. I love bringing them back to life.

First picture is a quick cell phone shot of a black 1962 Rolls Royce Silver Cloud I did a couple months ago.

Second picture is a close up of a leather seat from a Ford Expedition with over 160k miles.
 
Here's a couple from last years correction, this is after 6 passes with Meg 105 !

I know the title says 50/50 but with an iPhone it's not easy so I did like more of a Before/After hope that counts ;)

Used M105/M205 combo on this really neglected Toyota Celica hood.
