Presidential Detailed: 2007 Honda Civic SI

[PresdntialDtail]

This car came to me in pretty good shape already, but the customer wanted it perfect! I switched up my normal routine of SIP/White, which Ive always had great success with on this particular type of car and I went with M105/Yellow Megs Polishing Pad using the KB method. This process was much quicker and easier on my body since you can keep the rpms real low and just work the product in. After this process, the car was LSP ready but I wanted to take it a step further and jeweled the car with 3M UF/UK Finishing Pad. The car was then sealed with Opti-Seal and had two coats of P21S 100% Paste Wax. This left the car dripping wet! :eek:



The car was dropped off at my house a couple days early, so it got a nice helping of bird poo from sitting outside during the day. The owner actually keeps this car very clean!
