    Got this one from a softball buddy. Showed up pretty swirled....worse than some but not as bad as others....you know the drill!!:cooleek: Interior was pretty normal for a couple with kids.



    Here`s my process:

    Wash w/Dawn

    Wheels got Megs WB

    Wells and tires got Megs DG

    Dried with leaf blower

    Clayed paint and glass

    IPA wipe down entire car

    Polish:

    Menz SIP w/yellow CCS

    Menz 106FF w/whiteCCS

    IPA wipe down

    Topped w/Megs #16

    Followed w/DG AW



    Interior got vacuumed

    Seats got Megs APC

    Mats got APC and extracted

    Carpets got APC, interior brushed and vacuumed

    Dash got Megs QID

    Great job. It`s great to see details on really expensive cars, but it`s also equally interesting to see great jobs on more average ones as well.

    Looks excellent! I love how deep the gloss is. Those were some bad swirls. Did you use a rotary or PC?

    Nice overall detail!!! You make the car that just went through winter look better than new! I really like what you did with the swirls!

    How was that paint to work with? I`m doing the exact same year and color next week for a fellow Autopian...then I hope to do his NSX!

    From my experience, it`s not too bad. An orange pad should take care of it if you`re using a PC.
