Looks amazing. Really cool how it goes from wavy/blurry on the first round, to focused and clear on the second phase of the polish.

Thanks a ton. Wait until 3rd cut and final polish, that’s when it will really pop. I actually came across 3 of them together(same owner) that had a professional polish about 5 months ago. When I was looking at them I realized just how much attention to detail I’ve put into this so far. Not too toot my own horn, but my second cut look 10x better. After showing the owner my process so far, they were bummed to pay what they did and asked if I was interested in getting theirs to a mirror finish. Can’t wait to upload part 2 and 3…coming soon

@@dcdvs1583 I'll toot that horn for ya. You have done this entire job from the get go... 100% amazing. It really is a work of art. I appreciate seeing it step by step, almost like being apart of the journey with you.

Is this one afternoon's work? I was under the impression that polishing takes hundreds of hours. Looks great!

This video was caught over 3 days worth of work; but about 16 hours total time so far between those 3 days. I keep switching from side to side chasing shadows as the sun sets across the sky. Out here last 3 weeks we’ve been averaging around 108 temps. Progress is further than videos, still video to edit and get all 3 parts of this series uploaded. Just needed final polish which is expected to be complete this week.
