2001 Camaro SS w/Wolfgang Fuzion + mini shoot w/my Z06

[Autogeek]

I owed my friend Chris a detail for a long time, and his car definitely needed it. Lots of fine swirls, baked on brake dust, etc etc



Process:



-Wash w/Meguiars Gold Class

-Cleaned wheels and tires with Poorboy`s Spray & Rinse Wheel Cleaner, Poorboy`s Bold `N Bright on tires

-Spot clayed some areas with Wolfgang Elastic Poly Clay, but it didn`t really need it since he clayed it recently

-Compounded some problem areas w/1Z Intensive Paste + 4" LC cutting pad via Porter Cable 7424

-Polished the entire car with Wolfgang Total Swirl Remover 3.0 w/LC light cutting pad via Flex XC3401 VRG

-Polished again with Wolfgang Finishing Glaze 3.0 w/LC green polishing/finishing pad via Flex XC3401 VRG

(got in tight spaces with a 4" polishing pad and the PC 7424 as well)

-Diamondite Glass Restorer w/cutting pad, Diamondite Poli-Shield w/finishing pad...all with Porter Cable 7424



-Wolfgang Fuzion Carnauba Polymer Estate Wax by hand....gave the paint an AWESOME wet glow





I also let Chris take my car out and shoot some pics while I worked on his car.

SOM is probably the best color they had for the F-body. Next to black of course.

[s.o.m.SS]

OMG Brings back memories of my old car. Beautiful. The vette is dirty too. Amazing.

[Carbon Blue]

WOW both cars look great! Im definitely loving the CCW`s on that Z06. Both cars are very classy and that orange color on the camaro is just dripping wet. Great job man.
