Kewl!
And to think, I was already very happy to have Mike Philips reply to one my posts at the megs forums... but you got to see him in person!

I did, and he's very passionate and very interested in his work. I noticed he had a prosthesis leg too but that never stopped him from giving us a class. Incredible guy!

This is the thread on the event I took place in:

To Bigberts * Sta. Mesa,

Thanks for restoring my car. Honda Black LXI '95.
Thanks to Jeff Chua and staff, nice service.

My car had white showered paint all over the panels and windows, got from professional detailers(building construction workers along EDSA).
Read several good comments on Bigberts, never doubted.
Brought my car a week after due to busy sched.

1st, they tried to clay but didn't work.
Then wet sanding, MAGIC! (saved money for a washover)

Rock on!Bigberts!! ASTIG!

P.S. We forgot to take pix of BEFORE and AFTER.hehe
but here's my car, 4 days after restoration.

still sleek and shiny= )

Thanks ulet.

Pa-PM naman sir price ng clay bar nyo and shampoo.

Nagpabili na nga ako ng klasse and s100 sa states.

Mga sirs question lang po.

Somebody gave me a Dupont Teflon Car Wax. Label says that it is a genuine carnauba. Is it safe to use as a last step product? Hindi kaya ito a kind of a clear wax? Thank you. Inputs are very appreciated.
