Scats Monaro

[Dan_]

Hey Ladies and Gents (term used loosely),


I had the pleasure of working on Scats Monaro last week as Tigs kindly bought him a gift voucher for xmas last year!!

He got a stage 2 detail plus a leather clean and feed. It came up quite well considering its never been buffed before. The wax i used was Dodo Supernatural (my fave Wax).

Anyway the befores

Holograms from the pre delivery detail

the macro of the holograms. You can see they are compromised of lots and lots of little swirls

Some deep scratches

These took around 4 passes of quite a heavy cut. I checked the paint thickness in between each to make sure i wasnt taking to much off. I almost decided to wet sand them but went the buff route instead. Unfortunately i dont have an after shot but im sure Scat can attest to what they are like now (pretty much gone, they are still visable from certain angles)

:shock:

Sen-friggen-sational mate, what a result !!!

Awesome present Tigs, it's looks better than it did new ... :bravo:

Great work Dan. Awesome finish. Gotta be happy with that Scat.

[DaveHAT]

Spectacular as always Dan ... kudos to Tigs for such a top gift.

Good to see the "old girl" getting the love it deserves. :werd:

Thanks guys, and thanks again Dan.

To the untrained eye, I thought it didn't look too bad for a nearly 6 year old car, but when you see the before and after photos and see the end result in the flesh - my god what a difference.

I'm definitely going to get Dan to keep it in this "better than new" state, that's for sure !

Cheers,

Scott

Dan - done it again, man!! ;) Dang, I gotta get me some cash together - get my bonnet resprayed (properly!! :swear: ) and get you to give my poor old girl some love too.
