Morning Guys,

This was yesterday. The usual black car swirls. It also had some deeper marks that had to be wet sanded for removal. All the pics are there for your perusal. Process was Intensive Polish on yellow on Rotex followed by Final Finish on blue on Rotex finished in Dodo. Again some of the after shots are actually during shots, i just grab the camera after i do a panel and snap away.

Enjoy,

Dan

Some muppet at the dealership decided roadblocker film to go under the bonnet protector clips was unnecessary so we were left with this

I'm always amazed how these turn out. It looks like Darren's (JusticeR8) car?

Come on Dan ... surely that would have come out with some effort !!!

:hide:

What happened Daz ? The only problem with the big guards on the VE is they are prone to attract this sort of thing.

Looks great as always Dan ... wagons due in a few weeks, look forward to getting you over.

To be honest mate ... I haven't seen any ads yet.

:confused:

... but I'm pretty sure mine aren't in it. Gotta say, I'm keen to see the ad now.

Went for a run last night and saw the DMS mobile parked on the grass near the tennis court down Blacks Rd ... I was going to write "HI DAN" on the bonnet in mud but then I remembered that I still want you to work on my cars and thought better of it.

LOL!! meh it needs a buff anyway. You should see it in the sun! Holograms and swirls galore. I havnt had a chance to give it a buff since i bought it so its still full of dealer imperfections. I have a free day this week so if i manage to get the pool, lawn and garage finished then i can work on the ute YAY
