Got my car detailed :)

[jdm>usdm]

Huge ups to Anthony (Grimm Reaper) for the professional job he did on my Civic. I highly recommend his PDR work and detailing services. He drove all the way down from Atlanta to middle Ga to pull a few dents and to spend HOURS on my car. Just wanted to post up some pics to show how big of a difference a good detail can make.



First and foremost, here was the dent that was really crampin' my style.

Here are a few before shots after we gave her just a regular wash. (Note the lack of fender dent in the pic!)

Doesnt look too bad in this pic, but the paint was far from desirable. The black didnt look very deep, and theres a bit of a white haze looking deal on the paint.

Better shot of the white looking haze. Nasty.

Meh...

Light scratches all in the paint.

Reflections in the paint definitely not looking too sharp or clear

Passenger side of the trunk saw the first run over with the buffer. Already a big difference can be noticed when the two halves of the trunk lid are compared

Drivers side after is saw the buffer. Already looking better, even with all those swirls!

Hola, swirls!

What the final product might look like if you took your car to a cheap detailer, and it might not even look this good!

Swirls not so noticeable out of the sunlight. Starting to look good on this side





http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5034/5874426368_369987eb60_z.jpg
Ahh yeah. I dig what this side is looking like.







http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3245/5874427152_5ebf5ab4eb_z.jpg
After a full other session of more buffing, some swirl remover goes on. Heres an action shot of Anthony doing what he does best!







http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3053/5873871617_7ae86d6e36_z.jpg
The remover applied. The sun only makes the paint look better now! Starting to look like money!

Dope. So long, swirls. Hello flamenco black pearl.






Put on some wax and let it sit over night. Here is the final product after the wax was removed.

Looking fresh.
