Thanks everyone! It definitely put some of my previous jobs that I thought were bad into perspective.

Man that was terrible. Great job. What did the owner think?

^The owner was very pleased. He was glad I decided to spend more time correcting the majority of the car instead of messing with the smaller details.

WOW. Nice save! You are great at documenting your work. I bet it brings you a lot of jobs due to the dramatic results you deliver. Again, nice job! rops:

^Thanks! My love of photography is very helpful for my detailing work. I post these write ups on my site as well, and I think it really helps bring in business and even better yet, it shows the owners the true transformation that their vehicle has gone through.

Trashed is an understatement!! HOLY COW!!!!

NICE TURNAROUND!!!

What machine did you use for the tight areas?

^Ah darn, I always leave out a few details in my write ups... thanks for asking. All the tight areas were done with my usual PC7424XP and 3" or 4" pads. Also forgot to mention I did a quick ONR wash after compounding.

Not sure what to think with the before pictures. The car looks awesome in the after, you sure that is the same car?

^I think it is the same car... the day kind of turned into a blur, so it is possible someone replaced it with a different car and I just didn't notice :buffing:

It was hard to look at... no idea how it got that bad in the first place. I was actually kind of impressed that someone could do that much damage haha :joking:

Great work, on a "classic car." Seriously, that's my favorite generation of the IS. I know it didn't go over well here, but I loved it.

Looks great! The title really indicates the level of improvement. It will now satisfy the majority of people ....at 5 foot.

^Yup, pretty sickening

^I also loved these 1st gen IS's... that is the reason I ended up buying a 2nd gen.
