We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.

        Can I ask about time you spent with detailing this DB9 with this system and your opinion about time needed with "classic" methods you are using?

        Thanks a lot for comments, I hope that it's nothing what can not be presented now

            Holy.... how in the hell does a DB9 get beat up that bad? Did they wash it exclusively at gas stations for a year or something?! Jeez, that's a seriously impressive transformation regardless of how it was done... but even more so if it was done via DA only.

              As gjohn28 said, if it's giving more bite to the DA simulating a rotary, does that make it more 'dangerous' for beginners to use since it may be more prone to damage the paint? Or does it still have the safety factor like using a DA and foam pads?

                Could work.

                          I can not wait for the release of this system. I thought m105 and surbuf pads were a dream to use with da. Joe the DB is great but I see a smudge...... Nevermind that was some drool the car looks amazing.

                            i have posted many times that a mf bonnet over top of a pad is the quickest way to a perfect micro marring free finish on even the softest paints.

                              The swirls in this 2006 black Mustang GT Convertible were removed using the new DA Microfiber System. 2-Steps and the swirls were removed and a show car finish restored...

                              Here's two threads about this Mustang on MOL

                              DISO = The Dealership Installed Swirl Option

                              The story of 3 H's - Horrendous, Horror Story and Hack Detailers...



                              Before - Some of the worst detailer inflicted swirls I've ever seen...

                              DISO = Dealer Installed Swirl Option
                              Here's a few shots taken in the sun. Note how the swirls in the paint closest to the windshield have an almost floating or 3D effect, this is where the term hologram comes from in the context of talking about swirls instilled by a rotary buffer.



                              Here's a section of the above photo cropped out and in full size...
                              Often times you'll hear or read about "Holograms" or "Buffer Trails". These are both interchangeable terms for Rotary Buffer Swirls.

                              If you look at the below swirls they almost seem to have a 3D or floating in the paint affect, this is the appearance characteristic from which we get the word hologram.












                              After - This took about 4 hours using the new DA Microfiber System

                              In this shot we've actually only buffed out just the passenger side of the hood using just a DA Polisher. After getting some before and after shots we then buffed out the driver's side.



                              Here are the end results...






                              And here's Rob, the happy owner in his swirl free black Mustang...

                                I haven't posted the full write-up for this project but this was done using the new DA Microfiber System...

                                Except for the passenger side fender, the rest of this 1959 Cadillac has single stage silver metallic paint on it, one of the hardest types of paints to correctly restore. One of the goals is to get the dull, oxidized single stage paint to match the gloss and clarity of the new basecoat/clearcoat paint on the driver's side fender.

                                When I post the full write-up I'll let everyone make up their own mind if we reached the goal...
