Starting off with the wheels












Started raining again in the middle of doing the wheels so i was a little soaked, luckly it stopped for a bit while i started to wash the car. Started taking less pictures as i wanted to get the car in the garage asap

Thanks for looking, all comments welcome

 

Nice job those wheels are gorgeous

 

Nice work, those beading shots are amazing!

I always wondered.. do you use the same compound on the taillights/headlights as you do on the paint? Same pad?

 

Nice job....

 

In this situation i used the same compound/polish and pad on the headlights/tail lights. In most cases id say that they work for both paint and head lights, but it really depends on the type of compound and pads your using.

 

Nice job. Didn't know you got into detailing. We should meet up some time, I am always detailing on weekends.

Im curious now that you detail on how critical you would be of me. Since i detailed your car years ago ha ha.

 

yea we should arrange maybe a detail day lol

I actually have thought about what my previous details were actually like, because back then i had no idea what i was looking at lol. For me it was just wow its shiny and smooth haha.

You and Fminus were the only detailers to touch my car. Also realized how back then after all your guys hard work i destroyed the results with poor maintence and wash techniques
