Squeaky Clean w/Meguiar's #83 DACP?

OK, so I was doing a detailing job on my old man's 95 Jeep GC. I don't think this car has ever gotten this level of love on it since the day it rolled off the dealer show room floor.

Anyway, for being a 10 year old car, it didn't come out too bad. However, it was the first time I ever used the DACP product (applied it with a PC @ 5 with the Meguiars Polishing Pad) and notice that the produced "squeaked" as I rubbed it off. Squeaky clean maybe? I wasn't expecting this and wasn't sure if this was the "norm" for the DACP.

I did the wash, clay, DACP, and 2 coats of NXT. In some places I had to use some rubbing compound to get the really bad grained in scratches. Over all, I hold him he still needs a new paint job.

GF has the digi cam this week as she's out of town and wanted to take some picts of her new nephew. Knowing my ole' man, by the time I get the camera back, he'll have driven through every muddy water filled pot hole in New Orleans.

Working like a dog.

I officially crossed the 50,000 mile summit for the second consecutive year on Monday on my flight out to Montana but, this year I made it in 8.5 months where it took me 11.5 last year.

I've slept in my bed 3 nights in the past 16. Between Washington State and Montana, my project management skills are getting honed. Both are multi-million dollar projects and require excessive baby sitting.

One of those larger companies maybe have a red & yellow pecten as a logo with operations in the Rockies/Pinedale area?
