Brother questioned my skills

[Espyone]

Not a full correction. My brother questioned my skill so I decided to put his car for a test spot.

I will not do the rest until he pays me. Gonna be many laughs as he drives around with this.

The car is 1998 Lexus SUV that he has abused and has not taken care of it. He even had said, "I did not wash it for three months."

Hood only

Process:
Washed with two bucket method.
Clayed with CG grey bar (medium)

Porter Cable with Orange Hex Logic Pad and V36 at speed 6
Polished with White Hex Logic Pad and HD Polish at speed 5 for the first 2 section passes and then bumped down to 4 with no pressure for the last two section passes.

Sealed with Collinite #845

Not 100% correction but I would say 90%-95%

Thanks to Mike and all you pros for sharing your knowledge!

PS....So what does your "he who has no faith" brother have to say now? :laughing:

I guess he can now question why his wallet will be out a few bucks! Nice work on white paint.

He was shocked! He is now buying dinner and he wants me to finish the car when I have time. LOL. I gave him discount, but not much.

Thank you for the props. Alot of research here and practice over the past two years has definitely given me tons of confidence.

I agree and will not hesitate to take it. LOL

Nice work! Your brother is a smart man to have you finish.

Oh the wonders of Toyota Super White, SS paint. For a 98 it actually didn't look as oxidized as some newer Tundras I have worked on.
Nice work either way, and definitely make your brother pay; at least have him be the pad washer during or after the paint correction. That would probably make him want to pay you just so he doesn't have to wash his white paint out of your pads.lol

Thanks! Just might hold off a little longer than usual and let him drive around so I can laugh at him. I joked with him and said I would do half the next time around. Then he would have to schedule with me to do the other half of the car.

just do the rest of the driver side and leave the left side un touched, that way you can promote your business and show the customers before and after shots lol

The funny part was when he walked out while I was putting on the Collinite. He thought There was wax on the left side and thought I did not wipe it off. Thanks for the kind words.

Like the way you think!!!! Nice work!!

Seriously thinking about. As bad as he takes care of it...then I can put a vinyl sticker of my business on the side that is corrected. Seriously might do something like that. Has some one ever done some thing like that? At the very least it would be pretty funny.
