Suzuki Swift: Full Paintwork Correction, Making Impossible To Possible

Good day,

My buddy who called me up to detail his newly bought used car for his wife's daily drive, and since Valentine's Day is coming, he decided to bring this car to me for detailing as a gift for his wife. after inspecting the car, i found the front and rear bumper repainted, previous owner must have got into some minor accident before it was sold. other than that the whole paintwork is originally from the factory.

Making Impossible to Possible, will you believe in technology? 2steps cutting, polish & finish from Optimum which is the double sided wool & double sided red foam. both pads could cut, polish & finish like 4-5steps.

IPA wipe down after the paint correction, and then was protected with these goodies. OLP was used for rubber and plastic for exterior.
