Just got my PC! Pictures!

Hello everyone!
For my birthday this year i asked for a few things, but mainly wanted money so that I could buy a PC and polishes and stuff, well i ordered it all last week from AutoGeek.net, and it came today! I was so excited i even did half of my moms hood! Here it is all layed out, it came in one big box with alot of packing peanuts. I kept digging through it and finding more, i felt like it was christmas!



So, i really wanted to try out my stuff, so i did half of the hood on my moms 2001 Pontiac Montana. I washed the hood in the garage since its actually snowing outside right now:mad My pictures arent that good because its too dark in my garage. But i can tell you that i sure made a big difference!! The swirl marks are gone and it looks wet!
My process:
Wash
Clay with DP clay My mom couldnt believe how much better the paint felt after i clayed it, and all the crap that showed up in the clay!
Polish XMT2 with PC and orange LC Pad
Polish XMT2 with PC and white CCS pad
Polish by hand Klasse AIO
Wax with Liquid Pinnacle Souveran! As soon as i did the first wipe with this wax the paint looked soaked! i even said "ohh mann" out loud! Some other day i will have to do the entire car, untill then, heres the pics!


in this next pic, you can see the swirls on the left side, and the right side is swirl free.

Now i cant wait for a warm day so i can detail my own car!
I plan on doing details as a side business this summer.:redspot

A very nice order, and Congratulations on the purchase of a PC!! Very nice job on that hood!! Finish your mom's Montana, take more pics, and show off your fine work!!
Isn't it amazing how Pinn Souveran products make you say stuff out loud? I did the same thing when I wiped on Pinn Crystal Mist. I said, "Whoa" though.!!

thanks for the replies everyone! i admit you cant see much in the pictures i took, but when i do the full detail i will post pictures for sure! Also, i absolutly cannot wait to remove the swirls from my BMW! It doesnt deserve to have swirls, it needs to be nice and swirl free!
I am detailing a friends car on friday, and a mercedes sl500 sometime soon too! this is going to be a fun way to make money!

That is the perfect kit to get you started....just you wait...you'll be ordering more stuff soon lol.

Very nice, I agree...once you start you finish it lol. It's funny because I thought only pro's could remove swirls and make care's look like new all it takes is some determination and patience. Good job on the hood.
