Wow, I could use that since I had to clean 3/4 of my car with bug and tar remover. What do you charge and how long does it take?

I'd pay for that. That's impressive. I've been thinking for some time now, that with all the scratches and dings from track days I should look into geting a pro to recondition the exterior. I never really thought it would do much beyond what i do with a clay bar and some wax, though. But the way you got the swirl marks out, and the paint looks really deep, that's top notch.
I have the Chrome Silver, is that a harder color to work on, or is it doable? PM me if you want, I'm curious what this would cost. I could drive up to Denver, no problem.

Not bad for your 1st time man... I'd be glad to give you some pointers some time.

Detailing a BLACK or RED car properly is VERY difficult. They are the two hardest colors to cover up imperfections.


<--- used to be a professional detailer whilst in college.

PIctures of my G35 turned Skyline turned G35...

Black, RED, and Dark Green are the three HARDEST colors to detail. Red because it shows EVERYTHING. Black is by far the hardest to make look good though. Shoot me an email NoLoveForTheVTEC@yahoo.com and I'll let you know a few of my secrets.
