Why are you posting under two different user names?

I had logged in through facebook on my other computer which is attached to my facebook. That account is my old one before I named my business.

Car is 90% finished. Today I finished the paint correction, applied Essence to enhance gloss and finish, and topped it with Reload to seal it. After finishing the paint I polished the chrome, applied multiple coats of einzet "now called one zet???" gummi pfledg to the windshield cowel and engine bay rubber, dressed the tires with Ultima tire and trim guard plus, and coated the leather in Leatherique rejuvinating oil to sit over night before covering the car.

Enjoy the finished paint!

Made sure to correct all of the areas around the cover snaps

After correction with the Nano and 1 inch pads. Not perfect, but with the unknown history of the paint its as far as I was comfortable going.

Sure would like to see the final work.

[Sean M at ShowShine]

OH NO! last time im using imgur...

here are the photos, sorry for the delay everyone!!!

Tires: Ultima tire and trim plus
Rubber gaskets: 1Zet gummi pfledge
Paint protection: Car Pro essence and reload combo
Leather: Leatherique twins

Pre leaterique, post correction/bare paint



























Leatherique applied over night, reload and essence applied in these pictures















Leatherique on seats soaking in (coated twice)



















Steering wheel polished out























Outside pictures after all was said and done

Leather after leatherique was removed, I'm still amazed after using this multiple times how soft and supple it can make old leather feel.



Finished car after, enjoy!!!

Edit, Double posted.

Most of those photos are from the Gf's Nikon D7000 and aftermarket lens. Don't tell her :P
