Default EXTREME ENOUGH turning 16 yrs old Charcoal paint to Mirror Finish, newbie on rotary

I had the opportunity to witness another 'believe it or not' episode

One of the New Makita owner..
Please do not believe anything you are about to see
cos it will distort your logical mind & alter your thought & effect you emotions

Initially i dont believe either...but after seeing what i saw .....how this Newbie on Rotary - Extreme Kaw kaw Extreme make over........

KAW KAW AKA MEANS EXTREME

only a day before i have had a close encounters, the 11 hours correction on the 8 months old E90 , I could hardly lift up both my arms & shoulder, as it is as stiff as a concrete……but detailing who can resist….

Instead of FLEE-ing …I flew to the crime scene….. one of which my buddy who got a new rotary & he started correcting his wife 16 years old oxidized car paint……the car is so oxidized that the owner...refuses to wash...but the loving hubby does all detailing, and it is out of his love for his wife, he bought himself a rotary & starting correcting...paint work

Let me share with you more…if you would please

Remember how lighting plays a big part in Car Detailing , as most cars defect only been seen from a strong lighting, what professional detailer want is to imitate Sun light but without the heat, as you need a cooling surface to work your compound & polishes.







Bette Midler : From A Distance Lyrics
From a distance the world looks blue and green,
and the snow-capped mountains white.
From a distance the ocean meets the stream,
and the eagle takes to flight.

Look good….but….hold thy fort & horses




Can you distinguish from just light or strong halogen light



Did you notice the effect???



Have you not seen? Have you not heard?

But does it work for car detailing…what you cant see, you cant correct



Have a bright & clearer day



Menu for the day:-

Correction work......

ROTARY whole car - Meguiars # 105 & wool x 2pases & more followup passes with LC wool followed by Meg cutting pad x 2 passes

ROTARY & Meguiars # 205 with Meguiars polishing pad


the 50/50 % area set.....




ready
get set
Bang!!!! Go

After Megs 105 with LC CCS Cuttinf pad…very impressive outcome


Look at the restored side, & the oxidize paint look like a racing stripes

extreme close up Racing stripes….



you may also see the paint chipped, perhaps by stones at high speed!!!!!



the unfinish work



M105 Megs LC CCS Cutting pad….is not as aggressive than the wool cutting strength

Wow, who would have believed that finish could be brought back to life like that. How long did he work on that car?
