      That looks awesome! I'm surprised that you were able to cut through those swirls with M205 and a green pad. How many passes did it take? Awesome work

          Subaru's are known for 1 thing, soft freaking paint! M205 works like M105 on this car. Fast cutting action. I tried M105 at first, but it was marring the finish incredibly horrible. 1 pass with M205, and it was almost LSP ready. Had some VERY faint tick marks, so we went over it with the Menzerna. TThis is the 3rd Subaru I've worked on within the past month. I'm starting to get them figured out

            Nick, did you remove the tick marks with Menzerna and the Flex with finishing pad or DA? I have all the CCS colors EXCEPT green! (sigh)

                Sam(part time helper) was working with me. I only have 1 Flex, while I was cutting with the Flex, he was right behind me with the Menzerna on the DA. I prefer using the DA for finishing work, but the Flex would have dome just as good of a job. Comes down to personal preference.

                  I'm supposed to be going back out there for another vehicle pretty soon. So far, I've done 4 of his, and have 3 more to go I think. Yes, he has quite a few vehicles. I'll get some pictures when I go back out there.
