Cleaned up the car

[Sal329]

Even though the car has been driving me nuts, the swirl marks have been bothering me since I purchased this car. Well I used a Porter Cable polisher and went to town this weekend. Car is now swirl free, now need to clean the interior and engine.

Now the only swirls you have are on your license plate. Looks good want to come do mine?

Yup, very good! I dare not use a buffer... i may end up with no clear coat! Lol.

Im also itching to lose the front license plate and bracket, but i don't dare as my car is still registered to NJ.

you are ballsier than I!!!!! I'm scared to burn my paint with a buffer..... so I'm gonna get mine repainted! LOL The Mark might be ok with a buff, but the LS has chips in the hood anyway

Looks good. I never get around to cleaning mine anymore since after a year of parking at my job I have other people paint on my bumpers and a broken grill.

I wanted to debadge the car and need to get under the front bumper and interior but I was being rushed, family wanted to go out for dinner so I had a time limit lol
I want to get a side thing goin detailing cars =) next up is my fiances Honda. I did it before but by hand now it is time for the polisher and really go at it. Then my neighbor wants his Explorer done, my friend has a repainted 70 Mach 1 and his 02 Infinity M45 for me

Did you use 3M Finese on it? It's pretty much the standard for this type job.

Nope I used a product line called Prima.I used swirl with an Orange pad on most of the car and then follwed it up with a white pad on the entire car. Topped it off with Meg NXT 2.0, then a day later sprayed on some Prima Hydro.
Yeap up in RH since Oct of last year Was looking at goin to Charleston this year for a weekend but instead I am sending my fiance and kids to FL for 2 weeks so we all can get a nice vaca lol

De-badging consists of welding the holes shut where the badges came off from, on my '96 anyways. (decklid) Keep the progress coming, car's looking good.
