    What makes our long hardwork worthwhile...

    As an avid detailer, it's moments like this that make you smile, even just for a few seconds/minutes, compared to the countless of hours of back pain and agony that we spend on our vehicles and our customer's vehicles. I am sure all of you can relate.

    Walked in the garage and saw this. Smiled. Took couple pictures. Downloaded then uploaded. 100% unedited.

    (2 coats of Souveran on top of UPP) I will throw another 2 coats on, for good measure LOL

    That reflection makes all the washing, claying, polishing, and waxing worth every second.

    What a gorgeous paint job.

    Awesome job done on your baby, love the color, had a 1973 chevelle painted a similar color. Never had it looking that good though, and that was a long time ago. I miss my youth, wonder where it went,lol.

    I bet if you put a hot girl in a bikini next to it, none of us geeks would notice her. Hahaha.

    Thank you sir I agree. You know, it made me think...I wonder how MANY HOURS I have spent on Marilyn alone, ever since I brought her home. That includes all the washing, detailing, buffing, waxing, etc. I would venture to say... Oh..... 100 hours or more. Is that a fair #? Then I started thinking ALL the vehicles I owned in past so multiply that by xxxx... Oh geesh.

    But tell you what... If I could do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing. If anything, I'd be more efficient at it now, knowing what I know.

    Thanks Hoyt! Me too... This color is the favorite of all colors that I've owned...more than black even.

    I did the same thing the other day, I'm no where near as skilled as you are.

    Love that car btw! the fact that it's paint looks to be in perfect condition is a bonus!
