This Mach One has only 17000 miles. The car looked great outside in the sun. however it did have a bit a dull, flat look to it.

The job took approximately 12 hours to complete. Tried to hustle, but owner was ok leaving the car with me for 2 days.
Kind of slowed down a bit and enjoyed the process this time around.

Performed a 3 step process.
1. Cut with Blackfire One Step. Perrrrfect! Could have stopped here, but not me. Gonna go for the kill!
2. Blackfire sealant. Left on overnight.
3. Blackfire Midnight Sun. A wax used to top the sealant. "Wet Ice Over Fire."

Also cleaned the interior and glass plus bunch of other stuff.

This Azure Blue is just sooooo much fun to polish out!
I was kind of depressed after it was all done---really, really enjoyed cutting that blue!

Paint was a tad on medium to medium soft side---Cutting with the AIO went really fast.

Lots of pictures coming...Hang tight!

Looks GREAT, Tommy.

I always love the buffer trail pics.

Mike P had a recent thread on "Counting your section passes out loud", but my main problem when my mind wanders is that my arm speed revs up.

Checking my buffer trails keeps that in check for me. Lol

Looks great Tom! That's a beautiful color that really pops cleaned up.

Question: what kind of pad did you use to cut with One Step?
