looks splendid, and just about every day on my lunch at work i will dust(if its not raining) or take my absorber to my 07 6er, as well the in side looks as well as i got it. Then again i spent 4yrs in detail at a local dealership, and am planing to return part time.
That's just nuts. Ever try just having sex?

Also, you are aware that you are eliminating clear coat when you're polishing by a machine, right?
I also hope you're stripping the old wax off before applying the new wax. There is such a thing as over waxing.
3-4 hours for wax? Please fill me in on what wax has to cure fo that long. I hope you wax in a sealed, dust proof area aswell. Dust sticks fo wax instantly. Apparently if you're taking 3 hours to wax, that's a lot of dust causing swirls in your paint.

Again not sure as I have done some cars 350+times no ill effects
3hrs because I do under the hood door jambs and under the trunk ie everything metal.
last line is null and void as I do car in small portions at a time ie trunk take of polish/wax move on to 1/4 panel then door etc etc.
Last point car is is a clean garage (go figure) and stored under the softest of car covers and the thinnest poly on the market, hense no swirl marks. I polish in a north south or east/west fashion so I have exactly ZERO swirl marks.
You are not a believer and that is fine and your car is clean but I have to say mine is cleaner/shinier.
I can't put pics up but feel free to go to cmoc.ca and under snakebite find a post/thread called rate the shine and you will find the shiniest car on the planet.
Oh and the rims get polished every time as well and this is included in the 3 hrs

You're wasting your time if you are doing any paint correction by hand, as your body can not create enough friction to break down down swirls.
I'm not a member on that site so I can't see your pics. But I'd sure hope it's leaner than my 7 year old paint on mine!!!

I must do something right, cause I'm CONSTANTLY asked, 'What do you use on your Mustang, that makes it shine so much'. Oh well, the picture won't load up. Boy, do I feel silly.
