dried the car

clay with PG clay using ONR as lubricant for a smooth surface

using makita STOCK wool pad, compound the car with meguiar`s M105

then change to lake country cutting pad, using speed 1 to spread, speed 3 then back to speed 1

after compound, polish using lake country polishing pad with meg;s M205, speed 1 to spread, speed 2 then back to speed 1

after that seal the whole car with meg;s nxt 2.0 wax
