Default Presidential Detailed: 1995 Acura NSX

This is the one you guys have been waiting for! I spent alot of time on this one, didnt plan on it though! haha! My friend James, VVS here on the forums, hit me up for a detail to get rid of the swirling and such that car had gotten over the years. This thing is in IMMACULATE shape for a car that is 13 years OLD!!! I had a little trouble with the holograms, because for some reason I didnt think to use my PO85r/blue pad for final step. I was trying to finish on Honda paint with 106ff/white and it just wasnt happening. Well I finally came on here to ask for support and got exactly just that! The car now looks fantastic and is swirl and hologram free!!! ok, ok on to the pics!
