Detailed: Rays Dubwagon
Hey guys, detailed rays 95 vw. Car was in pretty rough shape and had tons of oxidation. Got about 95% of it off.

Car when I arrived

After a wash and paint decontamination brung it inside to inspect the paint using my halogen lights. Check out the swirls.

Hatch was really bad

Name: raysdubwagon018.jpg Views: 85 Size: 47.5 KB

More swirling

Heres a 50/50 shot. Right side is done with one pass. Really shows how oxidized the paint was. Definately brings the color back to the paint.

Another 50/50 shot. You can see the oxidation even without any kind of lighting.

The rest of these are after shots after several hours of polishing and several layers of protection and wax.

No swirls
