While the pro's know lots of tricks and do a great job (usually), you can do a pretty good DIY job of detailing with a good polisher and the right polishes and products. It's really satisfying taking all those swirl marks out of the paint and making the car glisten!

Cheers,

Mike

Oh how I'd love a challenge like that. Cars in that condition are so much fun to work on because when complete, it's like they've be resurrected. Very gratifying.

Thanks Mike! I've heard these encouraging words before; it's on my list of stuff to do for sure! I've got some reading and tool/product purchasing to do over winter!
