wow that's some A+ work

L~R~G nor cal · 05-04-2008, 03:50 PM

How nice was it to clean and dress-up that engine compartment? LOL

Great job buddy and check your e-mail please!

FMINUS's garage door opener looks as good as ever! How about a reflection of an M3 in the paint of an M5?

sinnet112 · 05-04-2008, 04:26 PM

I was wondering why you took a picture of the neighbors lawn and then I realized what it was

Park2670 · 05-04-2008, 04:44 PM

You never cease to amaze..

Raz335 · 05-04-2008, 06:01 PM

Unreal work as usual! Lexus paint is the smoothest I've seen (no orange peel). I can't believe you only needed 106 to get out the swirls. Must be pretty soft paint?

Thats what great about 106FF, if used correctly, it can cut like a cutting polish and then be finessed into a finishing polish. Lexus paint is super soft, but the hard part is being able to finish with a white pad without leaving buffer trails.

A reflection of the neighbor's yard on the paint of the Lexus to show you the detailing work...

AJerman · 05-04-2008, 11:59 PM

Wowza, another amazing one my friend. My CG order gets here Wednesday, I can't wait.

I sure wish BMW's paint was even half as good as that. Stupid factory installed orange peel.

BK · 05-05-2008, 12:24 AM

Nice work! I see you used Einszett Glas Polish -- do you apply it by hand? I used it a few weeks ago, applied by hand and it worked great, but I was wondering if anyone uses this with a buffer, and what pad.

I drove a GS450h at one of the Lexus driving events, and it was a nice car to drive. I was impressed by it.
