No trees in the Warehouse for Mark ... He was upset!

Process posted at the same time as you posted above.
 
Looking good Alan.

David - Paint was hard to correct (Mark did the Rotary work, I did the PC stuff)

Some areas took 3 lots of Rotary applications.

Owner want the removing of all the swirls etc, to get it in A1 condition. Like most cars dealers etc had swirled up the finish, poorly machine polished in the past.

Cheers for the comments guys.
 
i really need some tuition for swirl removing with the PC

where's the after pics of the m3 then rich? ;):clown:
 
The Rotary was used to remove the swirls on this one mainly (PC on the plastic can carbon though)

You need one of Brazos DVD's Guy. (though after today all I learnt from him is how to splatter polish everywhere ;) )

Decent pressure, 4 inch pads, slow movement of the machine are what is needed to remove defects with the PC.

Will go back and get some after pics for you!

David - At least you managed to get a tree shot ;) Have you got a thread of the processes and products you used on Alan's car?
 
Cheers guys was a gruelling 18 hours (joint) for Rich and I but well worth it in the end.
