Smile My MDX detailed (56k warning)
Here are some pics of my MDX I detailed yesterday. Process is......

Wash w/ EO wet car wash
Clay while washing
AIO
NXT
dress tires w/ #40

I clay the whole car except for the roof and after I AIOed the roof it felt a little rough . NXT was very funny, after I applied it to the whole car and after about half an hour, my garage smells like lime . Removing NXT is easier than AIO, maybe it's because this is the first time I detail my car?? I don't know. I heard somewhere that said NXT will remove AIO but I still did it anyway. Here are some pics. I will be doing more work in the summer including polishing with Menzerna twins with a PC.

Wow, an impressive absence of door dings! Every MDX, including my fathers, that I've seen have dents and dings on the side panels. I've always been disturbed how thin Honda/Acura makes their metal panels.

Wow! Great job! I love the MDX's.

I think NXT was soo easy to use because AIO is such a great prep for a final coat.

Ranney, your Ultra Fine MFs (yellow ones) are excellent for removing AIO, NXT and that final wipe . I love it
