After 14 hours with the P/C 7336, all the Edge cutting pads, and Optimum Compound and Polish.

This car will be 11 in August, 96 build date. Spent most of its life in NY/NYC. I bought it last fall for a song and have been waiting to detail it. It does have some dents, but the reflection is AMAZING! Optimum sure beats Z-PC polish, which had an extremely small work time.

Process:
Dawn Wash
Meg's Gold Class clay
Optimum Compound on the entire vehicle (w/ various cutting pads)
Optimum Polish on entire vehicle (light cutting pad)
S100 (P21S) wax.

I love the S100 wax! I swear that stuff could be a religous experience! I have used Zaino on some other cars, but the S100 is so much simpler.
Here are the pics:
