    Gorgeous, Tommy! Nice work.

    I've had those paints with several test spots! When I have to move to the trunk lid I think I've lost my touch. Then...BAM...that's the ticket.

    This is Andrew. Working for classic muscle as intern. Saw me do one chip. He took over and filled in 8 or 12 additional chips. Did great!

    Nice Tom!

    Thanks for sharing. The BLACKFIRE One Step is truly amazing. Also as you discovered, in most cases soft foam finishing pads don't offer enough mechanical assist for the abrasives on harder paints like most Corvettes have.

    Applying the sealant and then the wax is what I shared in the class you attended called,

    Under promise and over deliver

    Thank You Tony...

    This was one of my "more" exited details than the others.

    BF played well, car was smaller, used more yellow pads than usual and the owner was just a super great all round person. He the kind of person a detailer would love to polish for!
