95 neon

Well sorry only 1 before pic. i was to busy trying to work but wow what a project this was. after washing it i went threw 4 clay bars just picking up old brake dust and ect that had caked onto the paint. the it was onto using optimum compound and i still need to get a better cutting pad than the orange CCS. but wow what a differnce after about 10-12 hours of work. I just sealed it with optimum AIO and a CCS gray pad till next weekend when i go after it with a yellow pad and ect. theres still alot of scratches to get out so it just looks good from a distance. im glad my friend has a car to experiment on. anyways onto the results from today. any tips or comments welcome.
1 before

me working

all after

those tires are the old falken RT215 azenies. new ones have a differnt tread pattern and compound. Thanks for the welcome I have spent alot of money on autogeek in the last 3-4 weeks and I still cant stop. I was really glad i found this place. as for the neon theres still quite a bit of scratching on the paint from his parents old cat and whatever else that happened across the car. ill be trying the menerza powergloss on with a yellow CCS pad this weekend on it. as for polishing up a john deer well why cant you make farm equiptment as nice as your car.
