hand job

[StephenK]

this is a my cousins green explorer. i dont have a polisher so i did everything by hand so there are still swirls in paint. i know it is not perfect but it shows what can be done by hand if thats all you got. pic was taken the day after. i was surprised to see it gave a decent reflect of house

Hey detailgod, the reflection dosen't look bad at all. Hey is that your finger in the picture lol....just wondering.

Funny thing is that I used to say I detailed my vehicle before I even touched a PC. Now I look back and wonder what exactly I was doing to my vehicle lol.

I used to be so scared of a PC or any machine, I would never bring any machines close to any of my vehicles but after using the PC I've already purchased a rotary....this place is very much addicting.

Really that was with a phone cam...not bad cam on the phone. Four kids, in our family we are also 4 and parents were always in a tight budget to teach us kids how to properly manage money. I'm thankful they did teach us how to manage money because it's very important, because of there teachings I'm quite well off and don't need to worry about money expect how to get some more hahahaha.

All joking aside though, the pictures looks good oh and I wasn’t making fun at all, please don't take it the wrong way. Nothing but respect.

[StephenK]

did not think you were making fun. the phone was nextel 760. i was worried about posting that pic considering it still has swirls and needs correction using more than just hand power. thanks for comments
