Just incredible. I mean, seriously. Amazing work! So hold on a second, this car was a leftover?? From how long ago? Also, how on earth do you get results like that with a DA polisher? What size pads to you recommend? On my Meguiar's DA, I using the standard 7" pads the bundle came with. It removes defects fairly well but there are always some left over. And doesn't get NEAR the clarity you get. Any tips?

My thoughts as well................. when I bought my '07 S I asked that it not be detailed by the dealer just for that reason. Great work Phil!

Wow.. That's a really good job you guys did there! I was just wondering, if you were to do all that, how long would it stay like that for before the swirls and all that stuff come back? *daily driven*

How did you guys get the Menz SIP to work so well? I've used that on every car I've ever detailed and it did nothing but fight me when I tried it on my black s2000. It worked like a charm on my first s2k which was silverstone.
