Dave, those before pics are mint compared to mine haha also, will the buff and wax and shit be permanent? Like after a few car washes after the fact and a nice wax, will it look the same? All my scratches now wont come back right? ---

Like after a few car washes after the fact and a nice wax, will it look the same? All my scratches now wont come back right? After polishing/buffing the scratches will be gone and the paint will be scratch-free, the wax protects the newly restored paint. Any scratches that appear after the detail will be 100% “new” and will be a result of people leaning on it, a dirty towel, etc. ---

Like after a few car washes after the fact and a nice wax, will it look the same? All my scratches now wont come back right? basically what kramer said. Once the paint is polished, all of the imperfections/oxidation are removed. As long as you use a clean microfiber towel and wax it every once in a while you should be fine for a long time. ---

ok sweet thats all I wanted to know. I wax it atleast 6 times a year but since its never been detailed it doesnt make much of a difference. I did clay bar it over a year ago but that doesnt do shit for scratches. I will go over my main concerns with you dave when I drop it off whenever next weekend. If you need me to pay you more for what I want, that wont be a problem. ---
