The buffing really brought out the reflective qualities of the clear coat. I like the clouds and the tree defination in the reflection.

Scratches are hard to completly remove without sanding and using a true buffer.

What wax did you use over the LG?

I'm definately going to be buffing that car out again. While the results showed good improvement they are not where they could be.

You can see the termendous amount of swirl marks and then the deeper scratches on the hood.

Below shows the vast improvement but as you can see its not perfect.
