Default Buffed Her Nice & Slow

Finally, had time to give her a nice full body rubbed...since today seem to be a very nice day. Had polish headlight with Plastx and man, does that make a heck different. I started to love her more. Then hose her down and give her complete rub..Check it out..

There is a link here on the products...call Plastx...you can get them at autozone for $5-7.00...tool required...sand papers (super fine grid) buffing pads. I got this step from the previous post in the forum...And the polishing compound I've used...KLASSE (Red bottle) all in one..work really good..

That is a lot of hard labor right there to make a black car shine like that
