wowo! beautiful pictures that are surely eye-candy. thats some nice work, and i've always been a fan of the CL. it seems to be a nice blend of peformance and luxury.also very nice and informative write-up. i especially liked how the engine bay cleaned up as well as your perfect before and after full body shots (taken from the same angle and everything!).
i really want to get some of that riccardo clay i keep hearing so much about. I wonder if theres anywhere in Windsor i could find it. wouldn't be a bad trip across the bridge/tunnel if so and would be totally worth it. if not i might try to find one of u Canadian fellas to send me some and in turn I could send something for one of you to try.

Car looks amazing...you really got some severe swirls out perfectly! How long would you say you work in the menzerna polishes before before they break down and go clear? I think I do two things wrong...a) use way too much product and b) Dont let it work in enough. I have also always worked on half hood for example in one shot or an entire door, where I am going to try 2' x 2' sections from now on. For this 2x2 area how many times would I go back and fourth or how many minutes would it take to completely break down the polish?
I have always gotten the cars almost perfect but my black soft honda paint you see some very minor buffer trails that i would like to eliminate this spring!

I have read about even the best of them having a hard time finishing down clean on the s2000 because of it's extra soft paint. Also are you doing a 2 step or just 1 step cause if it's just something like Super Intensive Polish or anything in the medium cutting range your gonna have a hard time.I suggest using something like Micro Polish PO87 for your current situation with a 5 inch white Lake Country Pad that Detailers Domain sells on a Porter Cable if you have one or can get one.

Actually, I think the 50/50 (Sun/Shade) shots of the engine bay was great!
