      Been nearly a year since I did this one (I saw some posts about it on another forum so I thought I'd revisit it).

      Strange, but for some reason I feel tired and sore all over again.

          It still blows me away when I read through it and see the transformation, one year later!

              You must go through M105 like no other, you use it for everything. Do you put it on your cereal and dab it beyond your ears too?

                      I've never seen such a complete detailing in all my life! This has to be one of the best jobs I've ever seen since I joined MOL back in 2004.

                      Kevin, can you break down your carpet cleaning process a bit?

                        You're not just removing a scratch.

                        You are obviously and noticeably removing some nasty orange peel:



                        Did you have a factory service manual to work with? It must have taken you quite a while to remove so many interior pieces, even with a FSM.

                          This very thread motivated me with my own car as well as a detail on a work pickup as well. Tim Lingor helped with some Rotary questions and I got to talk to Michael Stoops, our fearless leader when I called Meguiar's with a question about the trim on the Dodge pickup.

                          Kevin's quest to make a car perfect is my motivation when I work on my own cars or others for a quick buck.

                                Not trying to be a wet blanket here, but I thought it was conventional wisdom not to wet sand a factory clear coat finish.

                                Not that I'm against doing it, but I've heard so much negative talk about how it can introduce paint failure.
