Bill was $300 for the day and the client washed the car before bringing it in so I could spend the entire day polishing.

Faded paint is fun to work on.
Ken, I'm guessing like most reds, this is a single stage paint? Show us some shots of your pads!

Kev | Pads were nasty. You couldn't even tell they were orange. We got a couple of panels out of each pad before they were too clogged up to use. We went through around a dozen pads on this jetta. Even the wax applicator was red!

Wow, nice comparison, but I'm curious how come somebody would spend $300 to get an old Jetta professionally detailed, unless it's super low mileage and mint?

"
I think that applies here.
Another excellent job, Ken!!!
Again, does it have a single stage paintjob? Cause I have a '71 Corolla that could use that same treatment. I've done a 3 stage Mother's on the hood but it only looks about 75% as shiny as you got the Dub. http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e2...r/Corolla1.jpg http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e2...r/Corolla2.jpg http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e2...r/Corolla3.jpg

| Yes it was single stage. Don't forget we were using rotary polishers and some very aggressive polishes to get to come back. |
