Car: 1995 Volvo 850 Turbo Station Wagon w/ 240,000km
Paint: Black Single Stage
Condition: Hammered.
I started off with cleaning the wheels with Meguiars Wheel Brightener with a variety of brushes, followed by cleaning the tires with APC and the wheel well's with APC.
Washed with Shampoo Plus and clayed with Shampoo Plus as lube.
Dried with leafblower and Waffle-weave MF.
I knew I would have to get aggressive with this paint due to the defects present, I began with M95/OrangeCCS on my test panel and it did well. I followed with SIP/WhiteCCS to remove the marring that M95 created. I polished with 106FF/BlueCCS to reveal an excellent finish. The LSP of choice was Collinite 845IW.

You can see the dullness in the paint, it was covered in swirls and RIDS. Covered in overspray aswell.
Engine: (Cleaned/Degreased with APC and brushes, CD-2 Engine Detailer)
