yesterday , package arrived .. it has a big box..  and a bit heavier than I expect..

tested the sanding function with 1500 grid on scratch resistent laquer for some hours..

it erased all previous scratches that I caused by hand ??? :) :)

and later tested polishing function with farecla G3 ..

results are stunning to say the least.. never ever seen any laquer without  swirls ;D

although for the polishing I was not patient enough so after some polishing used my rotary polisher to speed up the job but
really I liked it..  so 230 £ didnt fly out the window ;D

and if you are going to sand and polish whole car with a scratch resistent laquer those machines are a must.. and whatever you do sanding by hand causes scratches and hard to remove with that kind of clearcoat

ps: dont believe in the ad its not quiet ;D

I dont think the car's owners patience will be enough to wait me for I complete the job.. ;D
 
a single hoods paint job took several steps and days (1 day primer (10-12 layer) ,next day sanding + base color coat (7-8 layer) , next day sanding + final color coat+ clear coat next day sanding and clear coat again, + 3-4 days for sanding & polishing nearly a week in total  ;D :-\   :(   
 
 ps: and thats done in 34-35 celcius avg temperature .. in a colder climate multiply the time by 2 :-\
