Body repair tools worth every penny

He has been talking about this car since he got his new work truck about 2 years ago. Prime Day finally got him to take the plunge when we got a huge discount on the car. and extras. Neither of us had experience with a parts machine. He's a carpenter and it's like grinding for him so it was easy to learn after watching the video. This is eminently better work than the finest detailing ever done. I watched many videos, read reviews on several websites before ordering and the measurements were correct. It is best to use a combination of Rupes & Meguires color correction products. Rupes Ceramic is a must for the machine. Makes the surface look like glass on an old or new car. Even better than in the showroom. This was the only step that needed to be done after washing the 2 year old silver van. It works best with a color-coordinated yellow Rupes foam mat. Yes, it costs more, but it falls into the corners. So yellow ceramic pad = yellow pad for easier work. The Meguires 6" Microfiber Cutting Pads combine beautifully with the Meguires Pink Color Correcting Compound. It was the first step after washing on a 12 year old truck that had no coating left. the color looked like dust. This is the step you see in the picture labeled "During", Meguires. Then I made Rupes ceramics. Looked like glass, actually a mirror. To escape to the store you are given a ceramic protective wax which you didn't know about before as Rupes' instructions are in Italian with no English and we did it on Sunday. Called Rupes about the car before buying and they were helpful. Why choose the LHR21ES Big Foot? He is the best choice for the first time. As for Rupes helping out with detailed products, not so much. Recommended their website to me, which for a beginner is like trying to understand a second language, so I went back to Revain. Chemical Guys Oil the wax to finish the job. Most of the videos we both saw were Chemical Guys and you can get it in Advanced Auto. This is truly the easiest wax I have ever polished in my life. Our hands were done after a full day's work. Complete restoration on a full-size truck. Finished with oil wax, turns on and off after 30 minutes. It's an investment of time and money, but as they say, if you want it done right. I have to do it myself. The proof is in the picture.
