Default Nissan 350Z deswirl

Another black swirly car today... and yet again been subjected to an automated car wash by the previous owner. It was so bad that even in the shade you could see the scratches when standing a couple of feet away from the car!

So left the house at 8am a bit later than planned.

Foam pre wash with AG PM3
Wheels with AG Acid Free
Shampoo with AG
Clay to remove lots of red paint flecks with Sonus Green
Machine with ip3.02 on megs polishing pad

After the wash and clay pics of defects..






After polishing and checking in the sun for holograms... of which there was none :thumb:





Another before and after




Working round the car making sure as many of the marks were polished out took about 7 hours and even then some of the deeper ones remained but the level of correction was pretty amazing considering how it was.

Paint cleanse and 61% vintage wax was applied and removed with the help of the owner (otherwise i would have finished int he dark!)

Final pics in low light with a tripod











Walked back in the door at home at 10:30pm

job done.
