    WOW!...."One of the greatest detailers of our time" !! Thank you very much for that, very humbling indeed. (Now tell me where to send the check!)

    It looks like Mark and I will hook up on Monday. I`ll let you all know.

    Make sure you remember his reaction when he sees how good your side looks before he starts to work. I bet he doesnt expect it to be all that great, just a mild compounding (Possibly just some rubbing compound and nothing more). And he comes to find this absolutely gorgeous (well gorgeous considering what it DID look like) 1/2 of a truck hood.

    Another thought Anthony is to mask off your side before he has a chance to see it, this way he will not know what he has to try and match.

    Just a thought

    Beemer boy you are sneeky what a great idea..then take the tape and cover off and see....Anthony you had nothing to compare it to ....right... and you did your usual great job....this is a good idea...when Mark thiinks his side is finished the comparison should be made...also one other point now that we`ve opened the door....give him only as long as you worked the other half...I believe you said just under an hour...just a thought

    Very good idea. Not fair for him to have extra time to use his product that is supposed to be easy.

    The follow-up was posted on Autopia. I was told to "sign on Autopia BB then do a search for <ACRYLIC WERKS>"

    I tried that, I found nothing. I even searched for all of Anthony`s threads, still nothing.

    ok I`ll sum it up for you all....I watched the whole thing...the guy came he did asmall section in the time Anthony did the whole half of his hood..the guy diverted to doing windshield wipers and the test was flawed because they did it in a garage because it was raining or something close to that.. Anthony later said he would finish his half which had only been deoxidized and hadn`t had it`s final polish or wax/sealant ....oh yeah the guy had to use clay first ...of which nothing was ever mentioned previous for the product to be able to remove oxidation and contaminates....we all can hope for miracles from products, but we all know there are some limitations to everything made and a few steps are ususally needed even for the best finishes.

    at the end it got ugly as most comparison threads do...

    the guy Mark I think was his name , said it would have been easier and come out better if it was a newer finish....
