Good god I had no idea what I was getting myself in to.. It was a HUGE undertaking for one person, but it was an experience none the less. As the pictures can tell, it's not 100% perfect and I think it has to do with the abilities of the PC not matching up to the abilities of the Polish. My next purchase after some more carnuba and some synthetic will be a metabo. As far as products go.. OH MY did I love the Uber Glass towels by detailers domain they are by far the BEST glass towels I have laid my hands on, and will buy more, along with all my products! I am super pleased with everything that DD has provided me! Anyways.. it could've been better but after 10 hours I was spent!

Started at 9:00am

aaron- have to say that for that size car you musta been working fast!! looks to me like a "two man" job.

guessing that you liked the lusso oro?

great job and nice report!!

I was working fast.. maybe a little too fast as like I said.. still some imperfections.

Lusso Oro.. not really a fan. I tried to apply by hand and it took a long time to warm it up to get it to melt in my hands, then it took a LOT of wax just to cover half a fender.. It smells really good but for the price I was expecting a little more. Maybe I need to give it some time, but it was pretty hard wax and had a hard time even with an applicator pad...

very nice work on the rig.

I'm surprised at your Lusso comment. I find that Lusso is one of the easier products to work with that I've used personally. I think it's one of my new favorites over P21S/S100 even.

To each their own of course.

Aaron, that thing looks great.

Check your PMs.

That a big detail. Looks good for the time you put in. I couldn't handle that in a day by myself. My arms would fall off.

Aaron, I cant thank you enough for the detail. I wish I was there to see the finish product instead of being in hawaii...The customer service is just top notch. If the LS does not sell Ill give you a call. Ill text you to see when you can do a fast exterior detail on it if I dont come back up with in a couple weeks, dont want the other half to wash it (look at the before photos,lol.) Thanks you again bro, Talk to you soon, Will.

Pretty sure I can stop now. Got a compliment from the pro himself!

FMINUS, if it wasn't for you, I would have never gotten into detailing as much as I have.. or spent as much money! Thanks for the inspiration, I look up to you and your collection. One day, I hope I can have half the collection you have!
