But I start a new one, its more clean :) Okey, I got this car late last night, and startet on it 08.00 am today! Its the worst car I have done! The mercedes c-class was like new, this is just bad! I had to bring out the yellow ccs pad and menzerna powergloss! That tells everthing. And the car had been repainted some time, and it was poor done! I had to be careful with the paint! Hate that car :p

Buuuut, the end of this farytail is that the car looks great again! I am delivering the car tomorrow! Ohh, and my back hurts, whiner :cheers:

Wow! Pirex!! Awesome turnaround on that Audi! Love the half/half shot! Could really see a difference! You made that grey car, black and glossy!
Was that half/half pic after Menz PowerGloss and Yellow pad?

Thanks buddy :) Glad you liked it ;) Its after yellow pad and powergloss yes! Powergloss is the only compund I have seen that is so glossy!

[sparkie]

That paint was just all to heck:eek: .. You have turn it around to the better. Looks great. You said you used the yellow pad. If you don't mine me asking, what is the brand name of it?
Love your work...

[Nica]

Very nice pirex, you know I've been reading about the Audi's clear coat and they have a hard clear coat and I can see why you stepped up the pad. Looks really good bro...a wool pad would have come in handy huh..;) oh yea I'll get back to you on the PM you sent me too.

Great job bro, car looks good....oh you know some of those scratches looked like wet sanding would have made the job easy for your too...they just look some what deep, not through the paint deep just on clear coat deep. How and what did you do to inspect the scratches? Just wondering.

[pirex]

sparkie: Thanks sparkie! It was pretty bad yes! Maybe the owner have drive it in the forest? :p I used lake country ccs pad :)

Nica: Thanks buddy! :D The clear coat is pretty hard, so a yellow was the way to go, but a wool pad has been better :p Oh, can`t wait :awesome:

Wet sanding would been great on this car! I used my nails to inspect the scrathes :p I don`t have a paing gauge..

Thanks again :)

[Nica]

Nail works fine bro...paintgauge is good too but it's more to cover your butt ;)

[pirex]

And I have to cover my butt :p So I will get one...very soon

[joe.p]
