haha pretty sure there's no wetsanding involved here. That's more like body work, and this is detailing work.

Presedential, you detail cars about like a guy I know here in my area (Memphis area). He has a business called Word of Mouth Detailing. He does amazing work, as do you, and I always recommend anyone in this area to give him a ring with their detailing needs.
