Default Example of my work...auto detailing

Here's a 1999 Dodge Ram I did for my gf's step-dad. I taped the section so you could see the before and after.



These weren't the best results either, I was using the wrong product for a rotary, but I did the best I could with what I had.

next time try getting a before and after where the picture is taken in basically the same position...when you pan out for the after it makes it look like you're trying to hide something.

Hey arby, they're both before and after pics. You can see the line from the tape...where it gets cloudier, in both pics.

Yeah left is un-polished, right is polished...I taped the hard scratch up the middle to show the contrast in the picture.

1. Wash
2. SSR 2.5 on a green pad 1200rpm on rotary
3. buff with microfiber
4. admire your work

h: Sounds much simpler when I type it out. Although I found out SSR 2.5 is not a good rotary product, breaks down too fast.
