Default Tony F's gorgeous Escort Cossie

i took these pics after detailing his car the other week, i hope he doesn't mind me posting them

he said that after seeing it looking so good he had decided to keep it, instead of buying an EVO

There's only a small selection, but i LOVE it!!

Absolutely stunning mate!!....fabulous condition esc cos with superb paintwork, that really is top work

im going to do mine again over the winter with the 4 stage poorboys stuff but want one of these porter cable devices, are they worth it or will i get away with a conventional paint shop mop???

If you are a beginner to machine polishing, then i'd defo recommend a Porter Cable (or other random orbital polisher) over a rotary type.

Basically because they are safer and it's almost impossible to do any damage with a random orbital

it's definitely worth it, 100%

Very nice great work, i used the PC on my Sapph for this season and it came up well, a mate of mine in the bodyshop/ painting world gave me a lesson in Rotory and iv got the hang of it now... been practising on the company car so the cossie will get a blast with the rotory this winter.
