Back 2 Basics (not 56k friendly)

[DBC]

04` Xterra.Dont know what color is it.This is my parents which they bought a couple of months ago and had the dealer detail it.Didnt know about it till my mom came home driving up into the garage with it:o Surprisingly no swirl/buffer marks that i could tell even under intense lighting,just leftover wax residue on trim pieces.Decided to use the K twins on it since no one in my family knows anything about proper auto care so mom asked me to take care of it(isnt a burden when youre the only one who knows how to do these kinds of things?:p).Only one set of before/after shots.Couldnt really discern any difference cept for very minute details in reflections/gloss.Forgot how easy it was to apply AIO,KSG was another matter,but as always,THIN COATS.



Process as follows:

washed with NXT car wash

Spot clayed with Clay Magic blue grade

AIO

KSG

AA on all exterior plastic,vinyl,and rubber.(including wiper arms)

tailpipe polished with EO Neverdull

#20 on wheels after claying

AIO on glass (VM wasnt on hand)

my favorite.wanted to get a flake shot but this was the best i could come up with since a direct shot only showed my reflection.you can still see the flakes in it though.

Sorry for the rather large pics.Dont know how to resize them since i dont post pics much.Plan on adding another coat of KSG or #16 the following week.Hope you enjoy:)
