This is done over 2 days, one car at a time using a rotator with 5-6' country lake wool for polishing with ORSEN Crystal Cut 3.0. Then its finish with Mothers wax from Ace Hardware using old sponge and good old hand job.

What do ya think for 1st timer?

Looks good. Did you refine with milder polish after crystal cut 3.0? Btw, it will be better to use a proper foam applicator pad to apply wax. I think Ace hardware should carry some of those haha.

That foam applicator came with Mothers. I did not refine further with Perfect Cut 2.0, too tired (lazy) ohmy.gif . Main objective was to get rid of the swirl and water mark in particular on the car top and bonnet. Let see how long it last though i mostly parked it under shade or in basement.. hmm.gif
