    8 hour Saturday class condensed into about 20 minutes

    8 hour Saturday class condensed into about 20 minutes

    Just had a black Corvette leave, local guy that I met in a parking lot, here's his car...

    Looks good from this angle...




    Needs a little help from this angle...



    I gave him my 8 hour Saturday class condensed into about 20 minutes and showed him how easy it is to remove the swirls using only a Porter Cable 7424XP with Pinnacle Products and he's ready to tackle the job himself.

    I took before and after pictures that I'll post tomorrow...

    Man, that never happens to me...one of the worlds top paint polishers strikes up a conversation in a parking lot with me. Just like those HGTV people never stalk my Home Depot offering free makeovers for my yard. You rock Mike!

    Funny thing about this is that the guy from Bathroom Crashes.. Matt something I wanna say.. on DYI is in Minneapolis all the time. I think he was born and raised here.. Maybe I should start stalking Home Depot or Lowes in hopes of running into him. Haha

    Seriously! Worst part is that some poor guy probably thought he was doing a good job "polishing"... Well at least I hope the person behind the rotary didn't know the damage he was causing! Knowingly putting such bad holograms into the paint would be downright despicable.

    Looking forward to the pics Mike!

    Once you become familiar with pad and product combinations it's amazing how quick you can make a finish look great.

    Don't forget to post some of the finished product. What also would be great is a little insight as to what pad and product combinations you'd use on a Corvette's finish.

    Thanks Mike!
