Is that after the new paint?

That was before with my shit ass paintjob.

I don't know.. I think in this case I have to go with what Mystic always said. You can't tell the quality of a product from a PICTURE. Especially in this case. A night shot? Anything's going to reflect the flash

I used to post pictures like this all the time.. But in these shots you CAN see the shine.. It still 'shows' nothing though..

Wow, look at my Zaino shine!



Wow, look at my Meguiar's shine:



OMG, Mother's is really good too!



This car had never been waxed/polished. The paint was more oxidized then anything I've ever seen before.. One treatment (BY HAND) of ReJex) and it looked like this:





I think my point to this whole thing is that people think (key word) they need to take a machine to paint they do NOT have to. A true amateur is someone that takes the wheel to every car he does, old or new. A guy at my work buys a new car every year.. The first thing he does is take his wheel to it, and it looks like SHIT when he's done. I keep asking "Hey Steve, who buffed your car out, Helen Keller??". He doesn't get it.

Anyways, Epro, I think you need to invest in a good camera if you want to try to "show" how good a product is, because quite frankly you haven't been doing this long enough for any of us to take stock in your tips.

I guess all I have is my word...

All those rotary buffers will definitely do it, but my porter cable worked for me

Hey Marsh,
autogeek is having a big sale. Still very pricey but a sale none the less. It's good until tomorrow.

I saw that thanks. I probably won't buy until the spring or after tax time. The flex is a little out of my price range.

This is what I think I am going to go with.

I am not sure if I will go with the wax but this was recomended. This is a sponsor at ls1tech. They also do 10% off your order over $50.00.

Nice!!

I've never used one but from everything I've read, you can't go wrong with a PC 7424.

I will post up pics in the spring when I get it all done.

Be sure to use your camera phone in bad lighting.

I was going to do it at night without a flash with my poloriod.

I have yet to do any of this yet this spring. I can't find a day that is nice and i am not busy.
