This was the results of Saturday`s detail session. Sorry I don`t have the whole car...the size of it all was quite large.

This is Pinnacle Paint Cleansing Lotion followed by Souveran paste. The photos do not do it justice...it is simply among the wettest, glossiest looks I have been able to achieve.
Since I ran out of time, I used Armorall Ultimate Tire Foam on the wheels which is still dripping off in the picture. Normally I use Zaino Z-16 in two layers.
I will be getting a more pro level digital camera in the next few months and will then post more. This is from an inexpensive Fuji camera.

Really nice! I was wondering what was on the tires...
We gotta see some pics of your Lexus too! I`m getting ready to do the fall detail on mine this weekend hopefully if the weather holds out.

Steve,
I will try to post some of the Lexus later today. I have some digital pics but the color balance is a little goofy.
Let me see what I can do. :)

...then you put on the 2nd coat of Souveran, watch out. Even better!!
I love PPCL/Souveran but it is not for a daily driver. I use AIO/Souveran and it is shinier, just as wet and just as deep but has a longer lasting shine. PPCL?Souveran still looks more luxurious, though.

I would have usually thought, "Man someone overdid it on those tires." BUT you overdid it with the gloss on the darn car!:xyxthumbs

Both cars look beautiful!!
That lipped fender on the Bimmer really does the wetness factor good :D
Camera looks good to me. Pretty high quality. I would just go to a slightly higher resolution.
