The car was in great condition before the detail...the wheels where the only real issue with this one. The process was as follows:
-Wash
-Clay bar
-PS with blue Edge 2000 foam pad and PC at speed 4
-OS
-P21S
-wheels treated to PS and OS
-wheel wells received a pre-wash with PB Bug squash then AA Tire Foam (I believe Scottwax came-up with this idea...GREAT TIP SCOTT!!)
-tires dressed with black-magic
-the side windows where unfortunately not cleaned-up at the time, but the front and rears got PS then OS
Basically, I have never seen paint as beautiful as this. I never thought silver could reflect as wonderfully as this Aston did. Certainly this was the best paint that I have worked on so far. Orange peel seemed non-existant. What a wonderful experience. Enjoy these pictures fellow Autopians:
