    paintwork looks better and glossier ... it does NOT appear you vacuumed under the mats however.

    looks better but always finish what you start and you will get better. and you won't get jacked as often.

    That is a blinding RED interior. Paint work looks nice.
    This is personal preference, but on the mats, I would keep perfectly straight lines when alternating instead of getting all twisty with it. It gives a cleaner, more uniform look IMO.
    Lookin' good though - practice makes perfect, or at least it gets you pretty close.

    There is improvement in the paint work you did, you can get better results with better products. What machine (if any) was used?

    94lt1 those lines are created by making opposite passes. See if I can explain, remove your floor mat and start from either far end. If you make an up to down pass then the next pass it would be from down to up. Each pass is done side by side. Make since? no?
