Oxidation at its worst, my current MR2. Its a 1986 with 150,000 miles, that was purchased for $75
This was done ENTIRELY by hand, I own a rotary buffer too, but there isnt anything quite like obtaining jaw dropping results by hand. Although, it takes ALOT of time, and even more aspirine.......
I am not sure exactly how holograms are created, I used to use a harbor freight buffer and never created holograms with it and it was as 'el cheapo' as it gets. I think it might have something to do with inexperience and the compound used. Other than clear coat failure and really deep scratches with the right motivation, and determination, you can fix just about any imperfection in your paint. I used over the shelf Meguiars products on my car. I now mostly use their Mirror Glaze line, and I love it. For the price, it is very hard to beat, I think my results speak for themselves.
