Hi All,

I`ve been out of the detailing thing for a while and came back to ask some questions. I didn`t have a set of wheels I was excited about polishing but picked up a 2012 Sonata about 3 weeks ago. I came in, asked some questions and got answers which were very helpful. This is the result of my efforts. I would have taken it outside for the pics but of course it was spitting rain.



Here`s what I did,

Washed with Adams shampoo

clay with CG blue clay and uber lube

polish with Menzerna 4500 and a black pad

Applied Black light sealant with black pad and let it cure

Wiped down with CG V7

topped with CG 50/50



It is a new car but damn the finish looks great. I Hope you can tell by the pics how good it looks.



Thanks for all the tips and advice. I`m back :lol:

The addiction hasn`t quite taken hold entirely... you missed an opportunity for beading pics. :becky:



Nice job, great looking car. Now let`s get busy on that Road King. :lol:

The King got the same treatment but man what a PITA! So much stuff to work around and I had to do it all by hand which took a long time. Going to grease up the finish this weekend though installing a set of cams and headers:clap2:

Remember the H-D mantra, "that`ll void your warranty" and "they all do that". :lol:

Isn`t that the truth.
