K and it will need direct sun to prove anything. also, how many times do you plan on being able to wetsand your clear? your paint does look better than before, but its still not the quality able to be acheived by machine finishing.

Is this what I should aspire to be? Just because your not a garbage man, does that mean you dont know it stinks?
I have a rotary too, thats the funny part. I used it quite a few times until they showed up again the following year after a nice hard winter. Now i dont use it and I dont have the problems others do.
Missed a spot!... ok fair enough at least my camera pics up swirls in the sunlight
However if you move it more to the passenger side....oops same angle too
Ok so i may have gotten lazy on one spot but I have 30 images of every inch of my hood in this light and found 1 spot.
Reflection shots are too ez.... please kid, and this was done by hand

I have no idea what you are going on about. What is your goal/point with your posts? Are you a captain-obvious-in-training or are you just jumping on a bandwagon you have nothing to back u up on?

WOW.... my point is this!
Every week you post up pictures of your car... I have yet to see one that actually looks very good! You seem to think you are a good detailer which you are.... But you have alot to learn. Techniques that will actually improve the quality and feel of your paint and finish!
Bandwagon... HA HA HA, nope not for me! I do things my own way, and that is how I do things!
I have plenty to back up with... there is a little camera under my S/N click it if you want my proof! If not, don't talk ****! No one likes that!
have a nice day

I can tell a good detailer, you dont need to. However it IS rougher to get imperfections out with black.

Well if you wany my .02 cents the best thing I've found is the liquid claybar from Turtle wax, it cleaned my hood and got rid of the few swirl marks it had. I'm not taking sides just offering a sugestion as to what worked for me.
Now please continue bickering.
