      You're selling yourself short here. "Showroom finish" is not something that should be aspired to as most cars in the dealer showroom are in need of some help - sometimes a lot of help. You have taken the finish of both these cars well beyond anything seen on a typical showroom floor! What you've achieved is more accurately described as a "show car finish", and very nicely done at that!!

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.

            Now thats funny, but true. Oh and the black is probably much more expensive as it is already high maintenance.

              Thank you for correcting me. You are correct, I was shooting for "show car finish". I am planning an winning a few trophies after all this work.

                  Unfortunately not, and I have no idea why. I get the following message:

                      I am new to this forum but I've done enough reading to become familiar with who knows what about detailing.
                      Some of the best of this forum have commented on my work and I am extremely thankful for your kind words and it means a lot to me.

                        Thanks so much Stephan.

                        Wow, gclark amazing work!

                        I think it's also the lack of orange peel in your paint that make those reflections even crisper.

                        Keep that baby looking good!
