    If it's not rocket science, why do you need a "TRUE EXPERT"?

    Re: Not getting the results I was looking for?



    If, as you stated, the car looks good in the sun and has no swirls... what are you complaining about?

    The transformations you see posted on here - or "side by sides" as you mentioned - show highly neglected vehicles undergoing a series of polishing steps to remove the defects (that you have stated DO NOT EXIST on your car) from the surface of the paint.... so I ask you, what difference did you expect to see?

    As far as the tone of your comment... I will simply say that there is a reason some of the people on here can make a very good living off of doing this type of work. Part of that reason is that there is a great deal of knowledge, skill, technique, etc that goes into being an expert in the field of polishing paint. While a first timer can without a doubt get fantastic results with a PC machine, there is ALWAYS much to learn and improve on... even if you have been doing it for years.

    Next time, please show some more respect towards other forum members who you are turning to for help.

    Dear Mr. Bond,

    You stated that you see no swirls in the paint. What exactly are you trying to achieve? No amount of polishing and waxing will make your paint bullet-proof. How do you care for the paint on all of your muscle cars?

    Sincerely, M

    Mike:
    I based my purchased on this page at Autogeek...no better not........ At this point I will PM you with my comments and the process I used and get off "confusion corner". Yea I have been there.

    FYI.......got the Porter 7424 at my next door neighbor's yard sale $30.00.....old style not the new one.....the products I brought online at Autogeek......

    If I put my comments here it won't go good...they aren't to knock a product or person...yea I sell stuff too...outside sales rep for a Fortune 200 company.....doing good......just gotta work a little harder with this "new normal economy"........

    Relax you all, thought you all sound real up tight....hey thought you all needed a laugh ....I was and am laughing......

    Thanks for you're reply.......was really looking for some guy that details from his van...... busting his chops all day.....and doesn't have time to keep his black detailing van clean so..... late at night , he goes and gets his gas and then runs his van thru the machine wash at the gas station....with the brushes that scratch the heck (being family friendly) out of the paint......wiping the sweat off his brow with a micro fibre towel covered in brake dust.....worrying that someone will see him......well since he didn't reply.....I guess, you will do....just kidding.....
    The rest of you just suffer.....yea suffer....... till my next post...... Just kidding again........

    thanks again....
    Bond, James Bond.
