You are going to get hooked! Good job! :thumbsup:

Now, talk about the experience as to what you expected and your actual outcome. Talk about how hard or easy it was. Let other novices know about your experience. :thumbsup:

good point AJ

I can start by saying if I had the Adams flex package it would have made my life alot easier than using the porter cable 7424.

Thi is what I expected because I knew that I could not achieve 100 % correction with a PC.

and pretty much just take 1 panel at a time and see if your happy with the results you achieved !

How experienced are you with the PC?

How experienced are you with the PC?

experienced enough to know that I wanted to beat myself with it before I even started detailing lol

Ive done decent amount of work with it over the past 2 yrs

Pretty good job. Paint looks to have a nice gloss.

It sure isn't easy, is it? Thats why you will never

hear a pro detailer say, try it, its easy.

Hopefully you have a Grit Guard in that bucket and I'm suprised to not hear AJ yelling for a second rinse bucket (with Grit Guard)!

Now you need to prevent the swirls from happening again.

He hadn't explained his wash process yet so I was giving him the benefit of the doubt but you're right. No use fixing the damage if you're just going to swirl it all up again by improper washing!

For the final touch hit the tires and all of the plasticy trim (exhaust panel, splash guards, and front splitter) with some Adam's VRT :thumbsup: A C6 Z06 was actually my first use of the product as well.

Looks great! I bought another car yesterday so I am now going to detail my 08Z with my Adam's products as well soon. If it turns out bad I will blame AJ!....:laughing:
