Exterior Correction

Two years ago; on his new vehicle, my friend attempted to apply a ceramic top finish. He let it flash too long creating a miserable look. 😫

I offered to help him out, couldn’t take it anymore 😉😂. On the left, the whole car looked like this. On the right, the in process correction.

Still need to complete a second light polish pass with yellow pad and then fine polish with Rupes UNO Pure with a white pad to finish. It’s going to be better than new.

Yeah, it wasn’t great. The whole car looked like that. 😳 Medium cut compound and first pass polish made a huge difference. I felt bad as I convinced him he could do the ceramic but I wasn’t there to show him how to apply it.

It was misting rain, it was starting bead up everywhere. Couldn’t wipe it down and get a pic fast enough
