Make It Shine: Black WRX!

Hey everyone. Here is a Subaru WRX which received some much-needed TLC. This detail was performed over roughly 1.5 days.

Interior received a full-out interior detail.
Exterior was a bit different. Originally the client asked for just a wash, clay and seal. After washing and claying, the paint needed much more than he was asking for. I called the client to explain and he agreed to the following treatment:
- Wash via double-buckets, Optimum Car Wash & Sheepskin Mitts
- Dry with WW MFs
- Clay with Riccardo Clay & ONR diluted to Clay Lube
- IPA wipedown
- Poli-Seal via PC on a Blue 6" Sonus Pad
- Meguiar's #26 by hand
- Tires dressed with EO

I knew 26 would attract a lot of dust as it always does, but it gives off such a nice look that I couldn't resist!

Here are the pictures. Sorry about the dust in some of the interior pictures. I did the interior the day before so it had accumulated some dust before the client came.

Nice job on the dirty interior. Very wet shine as well. Good work.
