**Godfather** · 08-08-2003, 12:41 PM

here was my first actual client that i`ve detailed so far..everythign else has been family/friends/or MINE. this truck bascilly had never been washed before, interior was trashed. it cleaned up pretty nice but heres a pic of the exterior, sorry no before/after..just lookin for some comments on how it looks..

not to mention this was all by hand, no machine

What was your process and products? In particular, swirls. I`m kinda swirl focused right now (look for my posts).

this truck is fairly new, and wasnt to bad with swirls, the hood had some but they were taken out easily. i just used 3M rubbing compound for scratches/swirls, it works great and id recomend it for someone looking to get rid of swirls that arent to deep. not that i`m any kind of expert but hey if it works it works

for the process i washed/dryed
clayed
3m rubbign compound
mothers caranuba wax

i`m definetly going to look into getting a buffer..i did another truck today and my arms are KILLING me.

I am in the same boat as you Godfather. I need a PC badly, after a day of work, i can work no more.

**Ferrarislave** · 08-09-2003, 04:39 PM

Tassadar I feel bad for you get a PC or a rotary off E-bay they have great deals on em.

**Tassadar** · 08-09-2003, 04:42 PM

That requires $$$. Right now I would have to debate between a PC or an electric fan setup for my car, allthough im leaning towards the PC.

**Ferrarislave** · 08-09-2003, 04:45 PM

I see you can probley find the PC afully cheap on ebay.
