Detailed my dads c5 corvette (boo) for an early bday present. I dont have any before / after pics or 50/50s unfortunately. Went to break out the camera and found out the batteries were dead. My mom went to do a battery run but didnt come back until like 3 hours later. Got distracted shopping!
Anyways, just a couple pics. The car didnt have too bad of swirls/scratches. Only hit up the car with a one step since I didnt have a bunch of time (this took about 4 hours) and it was somewhat of a surprise.
Does anyone else here do detailing?

Came out very nice, black is always a pain in the butt cause of how fast it gets dirty but always looks great after a good detail

Thank you sir! Next time I want to try a sealant prior to the wax. It should pop even more. [ 2014-03-02, 09:00 PM: Message edited by: adower ]

Hah man if you pay for the supplies ill do it. Cant justify charging anyone as im not 100% on my skills. Although im sure I can get a bunch of swirls out. [ 2014-03-03, 09:27 AM: Message edited by: adower ]

I used to do detailing. Now I maintain my own cars. The secret is the products you use. Getting what the professionals use is key. Nice job you did!

Dana,
Hit up the link in my posts for Metalwax products. The owner, Mike, does excellent detail work as well and is located in Yuba City. Give him a call and discuss detailing your Fastback.
