Hey Guys,

This car was 5 weeks old. The owner hadnt even washed it yet. Everything you see is courtesy of the dealer "detailers" (i use the term loosely) The buff marks were horrendous. The bonnet was the worst, and thats usually the easiest to get right as its flat and easy to keep the pressure and speed consistent. Shows what can happen when people dont know what they are doing/try to do it on the cheap. It was just given FF106 on white on rotary. It came up great. It was finished in Zanio Z2 Pro.

Enjoy,

Dan

The opposite to what they should be. They are using the wrong pads and polish and they have bad technique
