dobby Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 So I have been busy doing a mates car. Taken me about 55 hours using a DA and Megs microfibre pads. I need a rotary before doing anymore lol. I am just an amatuer and did the best I could. Cheers Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zugara Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 I hope its no more than £4 per hour labour 55 hours is a long time, must have been in a bad state Looks good though, well done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dobby Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 The car was left parked by a bush for three weeks that brushed the car in the wind scratching it. It was also not really cared for in general so it had scratches all over. This is where the main bulk of time was spent. More than 35 hours on compounding alone. The swirls were easy to remove. In person the swirls were much worse then the camera could capture in the sun. Really bad scratches. You can see a bad spot nearer the edge as a haze. Close up of the arch The grainy pics is actually the metallic fleck in the blue and the iphone 4s taking them. Also there is no wax or anything in any of the pics above I will be using dodo juice bouncers 22 later tonight. Great wax. I have loads of video as I thought it was better to see the effects of detailing. I will upload them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
