This was the car that sent me over the edge to turning pro. A few months ago I received some products from the Blackfire line with updated formulas. The newer versions had yet to be released at the time. I turned what was to be a review of two of these products into a exterior detail; Blackfire Gloss Enhancing Polish and Blackfire Crystal Seal.
The car belonged to my roommate, a daily (delivery) driver, who's car hadn't been washed in two months plus. He,:xyxthumbs::laughing: ofcourse had no reservations about me trying new products on his car.

I used a combination of the soap via foam gun early on and then quick detailer later on as clay lubricant. I remember the back of the car had by far the most bonded contamination and took up half my time.

I used IronX paste on a couple of chips in which I noticed rust was developing.

This is what came off the paint a third of the way through with the Blackfire Gloss Enhancing Polish. This was the 1st one about a third of the way through. I used up 3 applicators total.
