Prima and a classic hotrod ::OctaneGuy Detail

Just wanted to show you what I'm working on this week at the new shop.

Problems: Light Swirls, towel scratches/hologramming, misc. scratches in paint. Billet wheels are fogged and so is engine components which all need polishing. Interior is custom and doesn't need any help.

Proposed Resolution: Polish with orbital and Prima Swirl. I haven't tested hardness of the paint yet, not 100% certain whether I'll need my rotary or not. But with all the curves, it's not a simple polishing job.
Stay tuned for full writeup!

Richard
