RE: LFC's MkV GTI by Zee
This past weekend i had the pleasure of Detailing LFC's Black GTI Cool
Packed the car with the goodie box and off i drove to his place (boy i felt like i was driving forever!)

Let the pix do the talking, here goes:

Hosed down to see whats under the layer of dust...
Not too evident, but riddled with swirls/light scratches

Out of curiosity, why is your test spot on the Most conspicuous panel of the car?
