Here are some pics of a Toyota Avalon that was detaled today. The car was detailed like once in the past so the exterior was pretty dirty, but the pics don`t do that much justice I don`t think of displaying the dirt.
My process was as follows for the exterior:
Wash
Clay
DACP (started using rotary then went to cyclo with yellow pads (very rough)
AIO
FMJ
I would of done more steps because I would of liked it to look better I guess....who knows. I spent about 7 hrs on this car between me and my friend. I think that seems kind of long. I was also having a problem with the DACP considering it was the first time I was using it. I was having a terrible time trying to buff it off.......what a pain in the A$$. I don`t think I worked it long enough or was using too much product considering I was doing a cross thatch method with the cyclo, but some spots didn`t even want to buff off no matter how much water or final detail I used. I think this product is meant to use with rotary as it can break it down better than a cyclo. Any comments are welcome.
Anyway here are the pics.......I hope it works cause its my first time posting........cause i finally remembered the camera....lol
