Detailed: 01 Civic 4dr

[CHAOS]

ok, so i was asked to detail this car for a member a while back, and we finally got around to it this past weekend. The paint was in mixed condition lol... i say mixed because there were parts that had large chips/paint missing and other parts that were pristine... we worked out a deal, and decided he would not want any clay bar, interior, or engine bay cleaning. i'd call it a bargain exterior job. now with that being said... onto the process and pix.



Process:

- Wash with PB SSnS

- dry with WW

- polish/compound: SSR2 (roof only), SSR1 on the rest, LC orange pad, PC speed 6

- PB Natty's Blue, LC white pad, speed 4, buff off by hand

- Exterior trim got PB Trim restorer

- Wheels got PB Wheel Sealant

- Tires had a large helping of Meguiar Tire gel before i got the car so they looked great even after cleaning lol

- Exhaust was polished by hand with Noxon metal polish

- Headlights got SSR1 and then PB PwS
