Lunchbox

I used two passes of the paint correcting polish and one of the paint finishing polish with the corresponding microfiber pads. I followed that up with one layer each of machine sealant, glaze, and Americana.

My supervisor's wife is returning from Afghanistan soon. So he had me spruce up her ride before she gets home. It is a 2011 Infiniti QX56. The paint had been pretty neglected so far in it's life. But Adam's came to the rescue.

This is a good example of the condition of the whole vehicle.

I completed the process to get it the way it should be using almost every tool that I have in my belt.

All is well now though and it is a thing of beauty.

This is the same area as the picture above.

Now that is a cool pic!

Good luck keeping your rides swirl free up there. I lived in Anchorage for the past 6 years. I almost gave up on detailing because it was so hard to keep up with it. That and the shipping to get products up there was crazy. All that being said I was kind of sad to have to move away.

Nice ride!

Grr double post.

Used this thing tonight to try it out............. OMG I achieved a finish just using SSR in 20 minutes Than all the years combined with the PC. I can only imagine what my cars are going to look like after I go through all the steps. This thing is so fast.... Man I haven't been this pumped up in years LOL:lol:

I had a similar reaction when I used mine for the first time.

Detailed this for a friend while he is on leave. He only takes it through a scratch and swirl car wash on a regular basis. I'm kind of afraid that all my work will go to waste. But I had a good time doing it so I guess it wasn't entirely in vain. I got my new Flex while I was in the middle of polishing so I switched to using it. All I can say about the Flex is: I LOVE this thing. It makes corrections so much easier and faster. Well her are some pics, enjoy.

I actually grew up about 30 min from Meadville, Pa. It's nickname is "The Tool City" because of Channel Lock and all of the other tool and die shops in the area.

Ok I thought my wife's Ford Flex parallel parking itself with a driver operating the gas and brake was cool but that is just CRAZY!

Congrats to your better half. Glad there are people out there that want to do the job that Seniors and Chiefs do cause I sure don't.

I'll have to check these guys out when I buy my next TV.

I was at ground zero last month. They have it all fenced off so you can't see in. The government want us to forget. We can never do that. Those who lost their lives can never be forgotten.

I had the opportunity to visit Ground Zero back in April before my deployment. The fence is there to keep people out of the construction site. It's a standard safety practice. There is a building across the street from the site so people can observe the construction. It was a very sobering experience. Made us remember why we do what we do. Here are some pics.

Dude how many moe times are you going to post this pic? I swear I have seen it about 5 times in this thread.

Here is my buddy Maverick. He's a 7 year old Stumpy Tail Cattle Dog. Still acts like he's a puppy though.

And one of him helping my shine up the wife's Flex befor I had to deploy.

I joined too.

Only 2 problems with that. 1 I live in Alaska right now and don't want a car I could only drive a few months out of the year. 2 I'm a Ford guy!

I collect Transformers. Not sure exactly how many I have but I think it's over 200. I have more than 20 different versions of Optimus Prime. And my wife lets me buy more. When I get home I need to start purging some that I have in storage.

AWESOME! Can't imagine the feeling of having a new baby and not being there for it. Thanks for your service!

Thanks for your support. I think it has been ALOT harder on my wife. Giving birth by C-section and then having to deal with a jealous 4 year old who is missing his daddy by herself. Some times I think the military spouses get forgotten about. I know without my wife there is no way I could do what I do. She :rockon::rockon:
