As the title says, I dropped off the vette to get detailed today - a few hours later it was ready. It's never looked this good, I was very happy with the results. BTW, I hate waxing and polishing - I'd rather leave it to the pros.

I've been seeing some really nice detail work lately.
How do they buff out the haze in the clear coat?
Looking good there Matthew.

I wish I knew. He (Jason) used a clay bar to get rid of all the grit that was on the clear coat. Along with all of his other techniques. This is his website, it has some good info:

Looks too clean for the likes of you!

Do you have any pix that show the wheels? I can't really see them all that well in your sig. pic. I love wheels!

I'll get some later - it was about to downpour after I picked it up, so I drove it to the in laws and parked it in their garage.

I think you detailed the license plate a bit to much. You rubbed it all off!
