Wash with 2 bucket method and Meguiars NXT Wash Soap
Clean wheels with P21S Wheel Cleaner
Clean wells and tires with Eagle One Tire and Rubber Cleaner
Clay with Sonus Green Clay
Polish with Duragloss 101 AIO via Ultimate Detailing Machine and white polishing pad
LSP=Duragloss 105 via Ultimate Detailing Machine and LC black pad
Glass cleaned with Zep Glass Cleaner
Engine wiped down and dressed with CD2 Engine Detailer and Sonus Total Eclpise
Interior wiped down with Woolite 6:1
Interior vinyl dressed with Sonus Total Eclipse
Leather dressed with Four Star Leather Conditioner
All exterior plastic lenses polished with Meguiars Plastix

Great work, my dad is looking into getting one and I am really hoping he does so I can take it out for a "test drive."
