You finished with Super Intensive polish and an orange pad? I know its white but atleast a white pad would have been better.

its white...you would be surprised how good SIP finishes with the FLEX. if on your last pass you actually lift it off the paint a little, and leave it barely touching it leaves it good enough. plus, it was a 1-step polish package, and 106 with an orange pad was not going to cut it...

I don't know. I know polishing is tedious, but you're cutting it short. Whats the customer gonna think when the gloss and shine from Jetseal and Souveran wash off and wonders why it doesn't shine anymore. The idea is to polish to a gloss and then ice it with an LSP.

Not trying to bash you, you're great, and its still a lot better than the befores but I just think if the customer doesn't wanna pay, don't cut yourself short. Give them what they pay for.

If you're only getting paid to do a one step then give them what they pay for, and make them understand that a one step will not remove all the swirls. The finish may look good now but that's because the menzerna is filling.

That was really dirty for such a new car.

BTW, how many cars do you detail a week?
