Over the weekend I was able to detail a couple of green cars.
1st Car - My uncle`s Toyota Camry. I think he bought this car new either a year or two ago. The paint was quite swirled with a couple of scratches and scuff marks, not to mention the dent in the front bumper when he hit a trailer hitch ball. But he would wash and wax it every now and then, so the paint wasn`t too bad.
Exterior Process:
Wash - Gold Class Car Wash Shampoo with Eurow Sheepskin Wash Mitt.
Clay - Clay Magic Detailing Clay Bar (Fine Grade) on the horizontal surfaces and wherever there was surface contanminents.
Polish - Poorboy`s SSR 2.5 + LC Cutting (Yellow) Pad (this was due to time constraints)
Pre-LSP - Klasse AIO + LC Polishing (white) Pad
Wax - Collinite #845 Insulator Wax applied with a PakShak MF Applicator pad. I would do half the car, trying to apply the wax really thin. I then would come back with a MF towel to remove the wax.
Wheels and tires were cleaned with Eagle 1`s A2Z and a wheel brush.
Wheel wells were cleaned with PB`s APC (6:1 ratio) and brush.
Tires were dressed with Wheel Wax`s Extreme Black Tire Dressing.
Wheel wells were dressed with NXT Tech Protectant.
The interior got vacuumed, and cleaned with the Woolite mix. The leather surfaces were cleaned and conditioned with Lexol`s Leather cleaner and conditioner.
My uncle was happy with the way it came out. He even stated it looked `better than new.` :clap: I also was happy with the way it came out. I really loved how sharp the reflections were.
Anyways, onto the pictures.
