2006 Toyota Corolla. Father and I switched cars for the day and figured I might as well detail it for him. Car is brand new, only owned it for a few months. Had some light spider webbing, and a bird bomb that stained a bit of the roof paint. I really should of clayed, but I didn`t have time to go and buy a claybar.
Interior got Quick Interior Detailer on rubber, vinyl, plastic, 303 Aerospace Protectant on dash, Vacuumed, 4:1 Woolite on carpets/Folex on stains, Extracted w/ Bissell LGCM
Exterior got a NXT wash, OP via PC Light cutting pad 5-6, #16 via PC Finishing pad 4
Wheels/Tires cleaned with Eagle one A2Z,Wheel Wax, NoTouch Seriously Wet for wheel wells, Meguiars All Season Dressing for tires and the Glass got WonderGel

OP + #16 is hard to beat as a two step combo on paint with only light defects. Beautiful wet gloss! :)

Definitely give them a go, you will be impressed.

Besides some dirt I had to vacuum up the rest of the interior was in almost excellent condition. Had some scuff marks that just wouldn`t come off, but I made them less visible.

Definitely a great two step. I tried out a polishing pad first, but that didn`t seem to do much with the spider webbing. The light cutting pad made quick business of it. Light cutting pads and the Optimum lines seem to work very well together. I was surprised with the result I got from #16. It really did give the paint a nice glow, im just waiting for it to rain so I can see the beading.

Great job - terrific finish. The only thing I see that`s not quite `detail right` (as is ofen the case) is the drivers side carpet mat . They get so bad they`re near impossible to clean (as was the case with my recent detail of my mother-in-laws car)...
Hmm...when I prepped my lease vehicle to turn it in back in June, I took it to the coin-op car wash after I cleaned up the inside. The drivers side mat was aweful with dirt AND salt (northeast winters- uhg!) This car wash has clips for your mats to spray them ... so I clipped up the mat and pressure washed it - it was totally cleaned! ... next time I get out the power washer!

p.s. you gotta love the eo1 all wheel & tire cleaner, it does a great job on nasty wheels/tires...
