How did you feel the paint was to work on? heard some detailer say the SAAB paint can be tricky with a rotary, do u use PC?

God pinse
Thanks Truls Can`t agree more with you on that I used a PC on this one. One of the best car I have worked on. Got the swirls out pretty easy First time using optimum compund, worked great!

God pinse to you too

Nice work pirex

I'm attacking a 97' SAAB 900 cab soon. I use the word attack because this car has not bin detailed in 2 years and the amount times it has bin washed over these two years can be counted on one hand!

Very nice pirex, yea you can tell it has been neglected and taken to a few carwashes. You sure did a great job on that vehicle.

The best way to inspect a vehicle is under the sun and that vehicle my friend is flawless. It had massive swirls/scratches on the before pictures but you sure turned that paint around. Looks like new and the interior looks really good.

You do great work my friend and I love the pictures.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Nica! It was nice to get those swirls out of the paint. It was bad. Hope they don`t go right back to the carwashes

Thanks again

Such good work! You probably have the nicest view of anyone on this board, I think I'd be very tempted to just sit down and drink beer for a while!
