I'd like to thank Ken, and Mark, and Richard, and Chris, and Chuck, and Heather for teaching me so much in the last 18 months... thanks to your help (and a bit of work and many $$$ spent by me) I won Best Foreign Car today in Blimey's first car show!!!
I'll post pics and a writeup later on my blog - but couldn't wait to share the news and THANK YOU folks for helping make it happen. I got lots of kudos from other car owners on detailing, paint polish, style, theme, etc, and I didn't know squat about any of that until I started hanging out with you folks.

Well, you'll have to take my word for it since I didn't get any pictures, but Swirl City has been totally flattened. Spent 8 hours Saturday & Sunday with Cut on an orange pad, swirl on an orange pad and also a white pad. Those bad boys are history. Also the ghost stripe were totally eradicated. Threw some P21S on top and now I'm ready for Vegas baby. After the new stripes I will Dawn wash to drop the P21S and then put on Epic.
Now snow sits over my formally pristine finish.

Wow! That's pretty aggressive - but those were some nasty swirls... I just knocked my boot swirls down a bit in the little bit of time I had on Friday, then hid some of the remaining ones with Amigo - but I need to do the hard-core boot polish (and Swirl everything else) before MOTD...
But every time I use Amigo, I love it more... on MY paint (YMMV), one easy pass leaves a mirror glaze... though if there are significant swirls, they'll still show (of course)...

I think I might have to give up on polishing and let someone else do it. I can't get past the hood without the bone chip in my elbow starting to kill me.
I got all the prep work done, clay and everything, and then couldn't polish So I slapped on a coat of Epic for now but I'm not sure what I'm going to do about the swirls.

We did think about making a do-it-yourself label with the logo but then we decided we really ought to make you guys something professional and slick looking.
I have always been impressed by everyone's creativity and motivation to do whatever it takes around here! Still, we thought we should do it for you anyway.
They'll be out one of these days. My list of projects that I have my hands into right now is SOOO deep that I can't honestly tell you when though! Surely by summer.

I forgot to mention that yesterday was the first time I used OG's OneGrip. Man I like that tool. Basically straps the PC to your hand so you don't have to even think about holding on to it. Makes it really easy to concentrate on the polishing instead of your grip on the machine. Really lessened the fatigue in my hands and fingers. So I'm giving OneGrip !
