Well I decided that my car needed a little bit of polishing done due to the wonderful dealer blemishes introduced during their "surprise" wash they hooked me up with when I took the car in for my 1,200 mile service. Car has almost 9,000 miles on it now.
Process used:
- P21S wheel cleaner
- P21S exterior wash
- Adam`s Clay bar w/ Quick Detail as lubricant
- Hose down car
- 1 WW to quick dry all water
- Leaf blower for trapped water
- 2nd WW to fully dry (I found that this 3 step drying method works pretty well and is fast)
- Poorboy`s SSR1 w/ PC 7424 - LC Green Pad (Only used SSR1 to remove light swirls. There are still a bunch on the car, which will need an SSR2.5 treatment at a later date)
- P21S Carnauba Wax
- Adam`s Quick Detailer
- Meguiar`s Ultra wheel wax on tires
The day pics are taken right after the job. I wish I would`ve taken some before shots, because the car got a little dirty after I was caught in the rain a few days ago. The night shots were taken after I took the car for a 200 mile trip to upstate NY and back, so the wheel wells might be a little dirty. I gave it a nice Adam`s Quick Detailer once over to remove dust and bugs (After I dusted it with California`s Orig. duster) when I got back. The night shots are pretty dark because my digital camera is pretty crappy.
My first time using the PC. Enjoy.
