my car has bad swirl marks, so i decided to send my ride for detailing today to recitfy the paintwork..500bucks including engine wash. The whole process took 5hours++..

The result is superb, 99% swirl free..After rounds of compouding using Megs Diamond cut. There's still one long deep scratch noticeable at the bonnet, the sifu took the Makita with wool pad finally remove the deep scratch.. notworthy.gif  nod.gif
LSP applied - M21 v2.0

sorry din bring slr today, using cheap handphone take pic

hey 500bucks only for the bonnet?..mine also got chip off cause by stones... mad.gif ....i think is cause by the cheap paint...so i guess by spraying this extra layer it wont be so easily to chip off...even my other car got no problem chip off by stones....where is the paint shop?
