And meguairs sucks ass! I don't buy anything except detail spray and tire shine at the local stores... for good waxes Pinnacle Royal Glaze is what I use!
Looks like you have some to learn also. A glaze is not a wax. It offers very little in protection, and most have little to no durability.

Kiddo? Ok. If you think a glaze offers the same protection as a glaze apparently you don't know jack **** when it comes to detailing, like you seem to think you do. I bet you think doing everything by hand works the best too. lol

I have hosting space on my website you can make them huge, or cut it in half and use imageshack.us or use flickr which allows 10MB per photo


edit: here is a 7mb file i am hosting on my free flickr account. no more reasons to hide

and to show the large images you can do one of two things just post the link (help with the bandwidth limit) or create a thumbnail

[ u r l = "web address of the larger image" ][ i m g]wed address of the smaller image[/i m g][/ u r l]

tent... she is camera shy hence why she wouldnt take shots with my car lol,

Although she got pissed when quite a few women wanted to take shots on it, claws came out.

She sent this yesterday on her cellphone before visiting me at work for lunch.





btw flickr made my 3.3 meg file a 414k file at 1024x665 or something

For swirls,

However i dont like getting in to abrassives with forums since u can screw it up worse if done incorrectly. Be careful and keep the scratch remover lubed and damp when applying. Best to try it in a place no1 can see well until you get the hang of it.
