This ES has no swirls or deep scratches enabling us to use Power Finish to achieve the results we needed. Einszett Glanz was used to get the metallic flake to pop!

3m adhesive remover was used to clean up various sap and tar (Derek spent about 1 hour removing all these from various places on the car)





The car appeared to be cleaned up but the clay bar picked up everything that the Iron Cut did not.
