That car is a lost cause. Even if I could restore the paint he wouldn't wash it.

So far everyone I have talked to doesn't like the idea of experimental testing on their car. For some reason the only people who volunteer are people who own older cars that have too much damage or their paint color is white or silver.

I'm doing a full extensive detail on my Obsidian IS250 soon.
The paint has swirls from bad microfibers, people leaning on the car,
and using aggressive clay to remove paint over spray.
A few rock chip repairs and a bumper scratch from FWY debris.

Look for it soon
