After months and months of reading and question asking I finaly get to start the detail on my 1991 Toyota MR2 with Super Red Single Stage Paint.
Here`s what I finaly gave in and bought:
- Porter Cable 7336SP
- 6.5 Propel Pad Orange Heavy Cut
- 6.5 Propel Pad Yellow Medium Cut
- 6.5 Propel Pad Green Polishing
- 6.5 2 Propel Pad Blue Light Polishing
- 6.5 Propel Pad Black Finishing
- Excel Waffle Weave MF, elite detail MF, all purpose detailing MF
- Hi-Temp Light Cut Swirl Remover
- Hi-Temp Medium Cut Leveler
- Hi-Temp Heavy Cut Levler
- Hi-Temp Terminator 2 Sealent
- Meguiars #26 Yellow Liquid Wax
- Meguiars Gold Class Car Wash
- Zoom MF`s for interior and glass (yes, I did rip off Target, the moral battle lasted a whole 2 seconds :))
- Zoom Chenille Wash mitts
- Clay Magic Clay Kit
Here`s what my process is going to be:
- Wash
- Clay
- Wash
- Dry
- Hi-Temp Medium Cut on an orange pad maybe heavy cut depends.
- Hi-Temp Light Cut on a green pad
- Hi-Temp Terminator 2 sealent on blue pad
- Wait 36 hours
- Megs #26 on a black pad
Here are my pics of my car, Yes you`ve all seen this a million times hehe but I`d rather not post a link because I know you all are to lazy to click it.

oxidazies around the edges
I doubt many of you read all of that but post anyway I need all the input I need, with critiques, tips, nub traps anything you can even tell me how cool I am.
But first a few questions:
1. How am I going to tackle the oxidation around the edges?
2. PC going to be able to tackle this?
I`m so excited for this weekend when I actually start this detail, Hopefully it will look half as good as your guys cars hehe.
Thanks for all your help,
Chris
