Looks good! One of these days I'll get a DA polisher so I can DIY; for now I have a great detailer.

If you have a DA polisher you won t leave any... as a matter of fact I removed the spider web looking swirls that you only see in certain sun light out.

All you need to do is watch this video:


If you have a Black car, nothing comes close to BlackFire products. I use nothing else for compound, polish, wax and detail sprays.

Here is a review I did after copying the process in the video.

Beautiful!

I just spent a good portion of a week doing a 2 stage correction with Mezerna products and my old Porter Cable 7424. Sure enough, still have some work to do to get it as close to perfect as possible before Opti-coating it.

Shoulda known better before getting Basalt Black!!
