So.....the title is a bit misleading. I've actually been polishing panel by panel over the last week. It is just way to hot for me to get out and do more than a panel or two at a time.

Process
Optimum Car wash with ONR in between
Clay with XMT and DP clay lube
Compound with DAMF 300
Polish DAMF 301
Pinnacle Paintwork cleansing lotion
LSP - PB Sealant with Carnuba
Tires - AA extreme shine
Wheel wells AA extreme shine

Sorry no before pics or sun shots as it is quite overcast and humid outside

More flake than I've ever seen on this paint

Some tires and wheel wells....Thanks for whoever gave me the tip of the extreme shine or megs foam cleaner in the wheel wells. Saved me from getting horribly gunky before I get a pressure washer

Looks great Jenn!!! You're husband is lucky you're the one detailing the family's rides!
 
WWWOOOOOOOWWW!!! That looks amazing Jenn!!!! Great job!!!!! My next order will be the MF system...I can't wait to use it on my Acura.
 
not to be sexist but it is F#*$&@* awesome seeing a woman doing detailing, your work quality shows your good at what you do, continue on making cars look beautiful like they should!...now if i could get my wife on track with my detailing obsession i could spend more on AG muahahah part of my secret plan...keep it shining!
 
I need to be a bit more OCD because there is some grunge under the back window I can't get out. My next project is to fix the 4million paint chips from living in Dallas. They must have more rock trucks per capita than any other city in the country and they were all always right in front of me.

I am the lucky one to have such a sweet hubby who lets me indulge my detailing habit with only a minimal amount of grief given

Nicely done

Thanks

wow, that looks great

Thanks

nice job.the tires and wheels look sweet

I'm not usually in for such a glossy look, but was getting hot and wanted something quick and easy. It and the Megs foam are my go-to products when I am lazy

I still have some rids and could have probably gotten away with just the compound because it finished nicely, but went ahead and used the entire system since I had it and the polish smells really good.

There are a few of us out there. Mazda Mom, Wills from Windows and Wheels sister Dani and myself. like I said...I just wish I wasn't so lazy because I keep finding things that need to be cleaned better

Thanks again everyone for looking

awesome indeed! how did you like the PB sealant with carnuba?

It was so easy to use. I applied it panel by panel and by the time I had gone around the car it had hazed. Was quite easy to remove and no steaking noted.

It looks Great and really makes the flake pop more than I've seen it in a while.

I suspect it was the prep work but it surely highlighted it.

its Texas in general....when I was stationed in Corpus Christi, I had four windshields replaced in two and a half years
 
Sweet flake in the paint Jenn. Does the MF system kick a** or what! I liked all the bottles piled together in the reflection shot hahaha
