Dooing your own detailing is fun and relaxing.

When I bot a DA and learned the cortrect use of the diff pads my last 2 cars were 99% perfect.

And once you get them to that level it's super easy to maintain that "just detailed" look.

An orbital buffer is easy to use and makes thre detailing process so much simpler.

How much does someone charge for something like this?

Also, anything special to polish the exhaust tips?

It is fun and relaxing, but I would consider it pretty vigorous work and takes a lot of stamina.

What pads did you use? Looking to re-up my detailing stuff and have these old pads and compounds that turned to mush....O.O;

Thinking of using 205/105 with medium cut and polish pad (orange than white usually?) on a NBP Acura TSX

What in the actual f@#k?!?!?! Your a witch! Magic i say!

Very good job and it sounds like you spent the time to do it right. When i first got my BB i tried that Turtle Wax Black Box, all done by hand. It was ok but your work is silly.

Door pics almost look photoshopped!
