Ok, so maybe I'm not the "big boys" doing concourse stuff---not that I haven't been asked--but it would drive me nuts I think...course it does pay well...ok I digress.
Here is something that came out of the rain to my shop. The owner of this car had some sort of paint damage on the hood. I touched it, and it had no texture--felt like it was in the paint, and not on it. Judging by the trails, it appeared to be related to the vents in front of it.
I asked my colleague what his thoughts were, and he thought it was some sort of heat damage. The customer wanted to know if it could be improved and I answered honestly that I didn't know, but we could try.
I clayed the area and made it smoother but didn't do anything for the problem. I then masked it for my test spot.
I opted to use a PC with a white pad and Swirl.
The owner said that he's had other detailers do absolutely nothing like this change before his very eyes so he was impressed.
Process was PC on speed 5 with LC white pad and Swirl. 2 passes.
PC on speed 5 with LC white pad and Amigo 1 pass
Then BG two coats.
He bought the products on the spot to finish it off himself and couldn't wait to show his friends what he discovered.
