Absolutely amazing. You literally made it look better than new. 
Did the customer get a chance to see some of the 50/50 shots and what did he think? (Or is he the type to not be able to appreciate it as we do?)
It seriously takes talent to be that meticulous and patient and you, sir, have that talent.

He really didn't seem to appreciate the job as much as I would have liked but he did take a bunch of cards for his buddies so I guess he liked it. Some people just don't get excited. Another guy happened by and saw the hood and propmtly booked in his Porsche so I guess its all good.

Ken, I really hate you...
Not literally, but I'm jealous of your work.
I wish I had the patience that you do. I dont think I could ever be that meticulous about cleaning and polishing every square inch
Even after my 11 hour detail, my car didnt look that good 
Once again, an amazing job!

I had a question on the tail light restoration. Mine are pretty faded sort of like the porche above, how and what products would I need to get it back to give it that new shine. I've tried the Meguiars plastic polish before and it only seems to last a couple of days before it looks dull again.
Thanks.

Thanks. | Is the Meguiars plastic polish abrasive at all? Or is it just for gloss?
You'd probably need a good abrasive polish to cut out all the swirls that are making it look dull

To fix tail lights properly, you'll have to polish them. These were really bad and needed a compound, then a finishing polish.

you might want to consider giving your customers a pic of their car with half of it done to show the difference.

A little before and after shot would be great. I know I'd want something like that if I was getting my car detailed. It kinda gives off the "wow he was worth the money" feeling

Keep in mind that wasn't just a detail but a resurrection. It included 32 hours over 4 days. The wheels were pulled and all suspension components cleaned. The wash time alone was 4.5 hours. All the polishing approached 20 hours. I still could have easily spent another 2 days on it.  | |
