Need my paint cut!
My paint right now is in terrible shape. At no particular fault of my own.
I wash with two separate microfiber wash mits(clean ones). Zaino soap, and dry with MF towels.
My paint is no longer glossy in any way shape form. Its matte and ridden with swirls. I figure I can get someone to cut my paint for me and come out cheaper than buying a pc and all the pads and goo.
I'm in Sacramento. But I can come to you.
Let me know if you know of anyone or you yourself can get it done.
Thanks.

I used Andrew before. I was very pleased with the results. I too had swirls everywhere
Good luck

for me, nothing better than doing it yourself. And it won't be cheaper if you have more than 1 vehicle or want yours done again in a couple of years. PC & pads is an investment.

HEY,
I agree. I was frustrated at the job a "detail" shop did on my car. So i bought the P.C buffer and all the stuff. Car looks awesome and it is black. It is worth the investment. Check out George at www.detailedimage.com. I am in the bay area... Would offer to help but.. seems far to go for you.
P.S Just my opinion... on the post above.. I would not reccomend you color sanding your car unless you are an expert... Plus unless you have VERY deep scraches.. or major paint problems it is not nessary. Good Luck!!!

My car had alot of waterspots and some pretty deep scratches so I had a pro do a colorsand on my car. The results are phenomenal but I really wouldn't recommend it unless you really need to do it.
As stated above, wet sanding is a last resort when polishing does not remove enough material to "flatten" the area with the defect. Wet sanding is only needed for really deep scratches or if you want to remove the orange peel. If you don't have any experience at this, you'll want to practice on another car or or car part. It's not that hard and there are some good sites that have a detailed step by step process.

I'm more than competent to do it myself, but I only have one car and don't care to do the work and buy the equipment. I definately won't be color sanding my car.
I don't mind driving to the bay if anyone is willing to help. I'll certainly pay you for it(time&materials).
