Looking good YG, have to ask though do you not follow up with #80 on a 8006 pad? I wouldn't of thought GCCC has enough cut to remove any haze that the #83 imparts?

Great work YG. It went from filth to fantastic in short order. :thumbup: :beer:

I have to be honest and say that those before shots don't do justice to the work YG did on that car - it truly was in a sh!t state, and the paint felt like 800 grade wet & dry! Best of all, even I can appreciate the job made on the chap and nasty plastics that Vauxhall fitted over the wheels.

You can normally get away without following up DACP, especially when using with a polishing pad... just depends on the paint and how well the user knows DACP/PC - you'd more than likely need to do a follow up on black paint though.

BTW... good work YG! :thumbup:
