    My partner Josh (celicalover) and i did this one a couple of weeks ago.

    We got a call from a previous customer who said he had a scratch that needed to be removed so i went and ordered the touch up paint for it. The next week we went to work and gave it a full detail as well.



    Exterior:

    Wash: Griots in a foam gun + 2 bucket method

    Clay: spot clayed with 4 star

    Polish: M80 via makita

    LSP: Opti-Seal

    Wheels: NXT tech wax

    Tires: No touch

    Wheel wells: Megs Hyperdressing



    Process for scratch removal:

    prepped with 3m adhesive remover

    applied touch up paint

    wet sanded with 2000 grit

    polished out with Diamond Cut via rotary



    On to the pics...

    Looks really nice from what I can see.



    What kind of durability are you seeing from the Opti-Seal?
