Thanks for coming all the way out to Pacifica to hook me up.

The clay-bar lesson you gave me was much appreciated. Now I know the best tecnique to use

Thanks Leo, you are a real professional. My paintwork had tons of particles, annoying me whenever I polished it, now the whole car is as smooth a silk.

For your headlight restoration does it work for getting out medium/deeper scratches? Do you buff them just witha polish or compound or do you wetsand them? Thanks.

if you can catch it with your finger nail, it's usually too deep. No, I don't wetsand, sorry...

Anyway I can have you see my car first? I've got a slightly nasty bumper from running rich (really not that bad but i'm pretty **** since i only have 5k on the car).............I'm not just looking for someone to do a reg was and wax......I was more hoping for them to focus on like the rear bumper, and any bad areas they see of the paint..........

I'm not trying to get something to do a quick wash/wax to replace what I do, but for someone who will do it better than me, and knows some tricks for making the car like uber clean.

you'll need to clean it before using anything else.
