I doubt your van would be worse then the one I detailed from Grand Buffet on 32nd ave south. We got their delivery van and it was FILLED, and I mean FILLED with maggots. They would spill food and not clean it up or leave food in there and maggots were EVERYWHERE. I had to pull everything out of the inside and strip it down and procede to vacuum every maggot out of there. It fucking sucked.

4-5hrs was without a good buff. I can spend that just buffing with a compound...

And as far as your shine off... lets take 2 black cars and have a buff off. And a high grit compound will start it off. I would like to see if you can remove every swirl in the car on a black car with using a deep buff compound.
Or we could just shine off with our own cars.
POW!

And thats a WHITE car.
What MF's do you use? what machine do you use? What compounds do you use?

Why would you pay for a full car claybar? Not unless your car is covered in tree sap or something you got off the road that gives it a grit feeling to the paint.

Only time I ever used claybar was with tree sap otherwise its uesless to me. Hand wash and dry and buff it with a low grit compound then polish and gloss it.
actually take a piece of celophane on your finger and rub it on the paint and windows. tell me how that feels, then claybar the whole car including windows, do the same thing with the celophane and then tell me how that feels. its not useless, it works wonders!

besides, who cares how often you buff your car, as long as it looks clean i doubt you need to clean it every other day, let alone spend THAT much time cleaning.

you know whats funny is that if you buff your car that much you wont have a clear coat after a year. have fun buffin that then. i dont have any clear coat left but i still dont have any swirls. later

I'll offer my black car for a shine off

[XJHEAD]

So will I. That makes two of them now.................

I'll offer my black rav4 as well...its not perfect (chips in front) but I'd really like to see how nice you guys could get it to look.

If I had the supplies to do it I would buff every black car available to prove my point, but I havent detailed in over a year and dont have anything to buff with anymore.

And as far as a shiny white car... im not impressed. White is the easiest color to buff and it RARELY ever shows swirls. Get a darker color car and show me it buffed without swirls then ill be impressed.

Honestly a man with no arms could buff a white car to shine perfectly using his mouth and a turtle wax buff pad.

I have buffed cars that didnt have clear coats... in fact they were oxidized so bad I had to strip through a coat or two of paint to restore them. Granted this is what the owner wanted and not what should have been done.

And I used a compound on my car maybe 2 times in the duration of me owning it. And I havent touched my current car with a buffer to date since I stopped detailing a year ago and dont have the resources to buff it anymore.
