it definitely does a great job, however if its bad you may need to clay

Awesome work. Two questions, if you don't mind. How many people worked on the car? and How long did it take from start to finish?

[Detailers Domain]

2 of us, 10 hours.

cool, ya sometime I get cars cover it rail dust and such. And takes forever to clay, looks like this would speed up the process a bit. Now out of the one liter bottle how much do you use let say on that car? About how many car does one liter do?
