Awesome work! The Clear Cut did an amazing job. Can almost imagine the gloss in the sun when the metallic flakes pops. Nice save from a swirlomatic life.

Wow---That's perfection!
Bet the owners were glad with opting for Option 2: Premium Enhancement package.
Love it when a plan goes well!

Stunning! Great work. Besides wheels, any mods?

It was bone stock when he got it. Added basic bolt ons and is enjoying it as a daily. Headers, exhaust, cam, intake and a tune. Moves out decent for its size.

Re: Hell has a G8 GT and it's HOT!
Stunning results!
I need to look into these new, wool pads. My wife's car would make for a great test bed for sure. It looks like you knew you had to go for the wool but I'm sure you did a test spot anyways.
Btw, love those wheels and if they wanna give them a nice touch, an OEM look, I have a guy who can make decal overlays for the centercaps, a nice Pontiac arrowhead logo would be a nice little touch for not too much money, drop me a PM if they're interested.

Thank you sir! The newer Clear Cut is a game-changer IMO. It really does cut FAST. I though M101 cut fast...but not like this stuff. AND the kicker is it finishes out dang near 100% perfect!! That shot of the fender directly after the before shot was after 3 passes and that very minor haze.....cleared up in 3 very fast passes with a white polishing pad. I didn't track the compounding time but I'm not at all exaggerating if I state that Clear Cut saved me 1hr over the entire car. Less compounding and less polishing time overall.
Pad wise, yes the purple and blue wool have been my go-to for compounding. At the end of the day, I no longer use anything but. The goal of using the least aggressive to me applies but the reality is so long as you cut through the swirls and level it out, it really makes no difference if you're using an medium cut foam pad and 6-8 passes or a wool pad and half as many passes as you end up at the same finishing point/goal. One still has to follow it up with a polish for best results so that's the process I now follow for cars that are medium to heavily swirled out.
Btw, love those wheels and if they wanna give them a nice touch, an OEM look, I have a guy who can make decal overlays for the centercaps, a nice Pontiac arrowhead logo would be a nice little touch for not too much money, drop me a PM if they're interested.
I'll be sure to let him know. Not sure what his plans are. He had the wheels put on the day before so he may not have sourced new center caps yet. I know he'll be replacing these for sure.
