A lot of paint imperfection!




Even the roof racks needed some polishing!

All cleaned up!


The hood was polished with our G-1500, G-2500, G-3500. Look at the difference!

Here's a 50/50 on an e39 M5. The customer wanted a Silver Addict Package done. We used our G-2500 with our Orange Hydro Pad.
