    i did some paint correction to my car, it needed it badly, i didnt take pics at the beginning or a really good pain compairson of the paint (other then door trim) but i make up for it at the end.
    THERE IS NO WAX OR POLISH ON THE CAR N ANY OF THESE PICTURES< JUST PAINT CORRECTION --- this is as far as i got today, polish and wax should make this shine very nicely, paint isnt back to perfect but much much better then it was.

    also, yes, this is another set of 20s, ill get more pics tomorrow with the wax and goodness as i have many new things











    a good compairison shot as i took a before and after a couple steps




    really good progress




    something i did not do for my car, but i just did on my mothers car my car was just as bad as hers to begin with.

    Ah fair enough.

    Thats the key to a good looking car anyways.

    Make the most of your wax and prep the paint properly.

    you know, u could just use meguiars m205 and m105 and call it a day. that stuff takes out pretty much anything using white and orange pads

    wow, how long did all that take you?

    you could have used meguiars m105 followed with m205 and got the same results lol

    looks amazing, but damn, save yourself some product, time, and effort next time

    The FIRST THING I noticed is that YOUR CAR is a MANUAL.
    Edit: And apparently your sig says that... >_>
