Also, Paul Dalton is considered one of the world's top detailers. Here's his site : Miracle Detail

P.S. Paul is member of Detailing Bliss and occasionally has someone post for him there. Also, I am somewhat surprised that we do not any detailing vendors signed-on here.

I agree. I personally believe Paul Dalton gets way to much press.

I do too, but he's brought a lot of value-added to the detailing industry. I also disagree with some of his methods, but hey, he gets the high-end clientele, and they don't mind paying him exorbitant sums of money!

From detailing website:
"Jap paint is known to be thinner, chips do not really have much to do with paint thickness. German paint is on average thicker than jap but they chip just as easy. Chipping is a function of many things and something that just happens as a result of driving. Dealer nor mauf have anything to do with chips as it is not a defect of the paint unless many people have the same issue. This is not common but has been seen in some Nissan paints and was brought to Nissan as a class action case."
Like to know the status of this litigation.

Dunno what pics will prove, you need to see it in person and feel the smoothness after the wax is applied to get the true idea... but I'll try to get some good pics after she gets done in April/May (depends on how long it decides to stay all snowy and crappy like this). Recommendations on how to take the pics for best effect? (angles, body locations, etc)
