Year/color of the car, and I'd need to see pictures of it in the sun like this:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/detailmaniac/5376378451/It'll show me how good/bad the condition is.
Just be forewarned that V dub paint is really hard, and to clean it up well it's going to need at least a 2 step polishing process.

Best case scenario you're looking at 200-240 for a 1 step. 400-500 for a 2 step if 1 step couldn't achieve optimal results.

^^^ I don't mean to pry, but would that be just for paint correction? Or would that be for a complete inside/outside/engine detail?

I detail cars... Almost out of D300 compound and am already out of Megs Hyper Wash, everything else you see in the picture = back up to what I already have. I like to be prepared for any surprises thrown my way

If you guys feel like splitting the cost of my travel expenses and lodging, I'm down.... Say Mid August?

Difference between this and Opti Coat is that Opti Guard has 3 times the active ingredient.

You'll really like the M101. When I used it on some Acura paint with a yellow B&S pad, it had the cut of the surbuf & M105 combo but finished down LSP ready.
