    Damn Pat. At least let him do the MGM one. He’s gonna spend all that time shining up the white one, look at it, and say “Why the hell bother?”

    No, it’s not his time for the buffing machine yet. Always best to learn by hand and then graduate to the buffer. You’re doing it right! I always feel that when you learn to do it by hand, it gives you a good eye for the details. And it’s good exercise!

    Oh! Thought it was a white thing. He was and running out of daylight. I jumped in there to help him finish.
    That Zymol worked pretty good as far as actually getting some of the oxidation out of the paint.

    Yep, we're about to spend about 4 or 5 hours on it. His truck really needs some clay bar and other work.
