My First Time Using The Griot's Garage ROP

[NYC-Style]

Ok after a few months of asking questions and buying my first ROP (Griots) along with pads and polishes I've finally done my very first car ever. First let me say my hat's off to all of you who do this for a living...this is "real" work. My daughter was gracious enough to allow me to use her car for my first ever....after seeing the pics though you can see why. The project took me 7 hours to complete...and boy was I sore afterwards. I was very happy with the results and look forward to honing my skills. Thanks to all of you who answered numerous questions for me. Well enough chatter here are the pics...:props:

Here you can see my test spot (overhead lite reflection on hood)...Wolfgang TSR with orange LC pad...

The test spot again...I was actually pretty excited after seeing the results with just the TSR

I used the Wolfgang FG with a white LC pad...followed by Wolfgang Sealant with grey pad...

+1 on the "real work" description. I did my first detail with a PC a month ago and I was beat. I can see how doing this on a daily basis would get you in pretty good shape. I was using Mike's philosophy of putting passion behind the pad.:buffing:
