:devilgrin I'm evil, I know but I just wanted to give everybody a taste of what I'm working on right now.
I've detailed the RL before but always with a random orbital so this is it's first time getting the Makita's love. These two photos really illustrate the vital importance of finishing down your work when using a rotary. For cutting, I initially toyed with Super Finish and a white but it was leaving too many defects so I pumped it up to Menzerna SIP and a green pad which created a TON of holograms. The finishing pass used Menzerna PO85RD and a black pad.
Can you imagine looking at this and thinking Well my job here is done.? I can't.
The sad thing is, most "detail" shops around here pump out car after car looking about like this. ![Why Me](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/whyme.gif)

Here is the same door after finishing down, no LSP.![Rock Star](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/rockstar.gif)

For the most part, the majority of people either don't know or don't care, they just simply don't know what to look for!? Auto detailing is a fine art, and your looking at a masterpiece in the works by Van Gogh himself!!!
