    This was one spot that got hit with wool. This pic shows after one pass with m105 and uber orange. Wool cleaned up the rest.

    Great work buddy ... We need to get together soon.


    BTW, I used to rent a townhouse just like the one you live and those garages are a joke. They shouldn't be considered garages unless you drive a micro car.

    If only the windows were tinted, then that car work be perfect. I would love a big body Benz like that. Lookin good man, keep it up. Your an inspiration to a small time guy like me.

    Thanks, and yes we should! I do hate my garage. I can't wait to move into a house with a real garage.

    Thanks, yeah it wouldmlook awesome if the windows were tinted, but it wouldn't really fit the owners personality.
    thank you. I lovencolli metal wax, shines and seals all in one. I havent tried opt metal polish so I can't comment on both of them.
