Close up of the shine.



Will install later pm or tomorrow... probably tomorrow as I need to put the car up on ramps and its looking like its going to rain.
Beautiful garage Ken!

You're such a Griot's whore...and I mean that in the nicest way!

Talk to me a little bit about your polishing machine you've got there. I'm guessing it's a random orbital. How much experience did you have using a polishing with such instruments prior to getting that one? I've been thinking about getting a PC, but have no experience one way or the other.

Hahaha yah I've had the 3" random orbital for some time. I also use their 6" for doing my cars. PC has good stuff and more for pro's. Griots one is more for the weekend detailer but can do pretty much the pro stuff. The biggest difference is Griots one has a lot simpler system with the pads and polish selection.

Yeah, I use a PC and Flex, along with a caseful of different LC pads and all menzerna polishes... Ken, you gotta step up to the big boys!!! I kid I kid. I am sure you are better at using your polishers than I am with mine

Seriously though, I was looking to get the 3" griots for a while now. For now, I just switch between 3, 4.5, and 5.5" backing plates and pads... it gets me in those corners.

Nice work on the lip Ken!!! Nice and shiney!
