    This is my own personal ride. It was long overdo for a full correction. I'd say the paint was pretty trashed with scratches and swirls, some RIDS and water spots. It had seen better days. The pictures really don't show how bad it was lol. I only did 1 50/50 which I apologize for. Total time spent on this correction is 25 hours.

    Here are the before pictures:

    The entire car was pretty much like this
