I just did my moms lexus this mornin. its a 2001 (i think). we just got it a few weeks ago and this is my first try at makin it shiny. i havnt gotten to the windows, trim, wheels or wheel wells as of yet just the buffing and waxing. There are some minor swirls and some small scratches that havnt come out but i wasnt really planning on it. ill wait till spring when i have the time to work on that.

My process:
1. AIO
2. Sonus paintwork clenser
3. #26

That is all part of developing a process that works for you. On some paints AIO looks good but on others it seems like it needs something. Often times I will clean the paint with AIO ... follow up with SSR 1 to make it shine ... then seal it or wax it.
Looks great by the way ... It is tough to keep em looking good in the snow and crap ... spring is coming:)
