Wash
This car was washed over 5 times to remove the glaze off it.
First we used Adam's Car Wash then presoaked again with W99.

Measuring the Paint
Before shots of the car prior to paint correction (this is pretty much the complete car, every panel as you will see is this bad after all the glaze was removed, can you say IMPERFECTIONS!)
