After about 6 hours yesterday and an hour today, I've finally finished detailing the Speed3...PHEW!!!

This Klasse stuff is the bomb! I definitely thing I need a foam gun and QD to wash the car every few weeks or so.

Lemme know what you think!

Pics are huge BTW...the only way to appreciate 'em!

Hmmm, lemme see...

First I washed the wheels & tires with the Wolfgang Tire & Wheel Gel. That stuff smells yummy. After that I went to town with the PB SS&S and a MF mitt. Claying came next; btw, I LOVE my Pinnacle Polishing pal with the plastic clay thingy! I had a Zaino claybar left over so I used that the Pinnacle Clay Lube and Meg's QD. I had to use the Meg's QD on the spots that weren't in the shade. For a 4 month old car, that claybar picked up a metric @r$3ton of crap!

So after that, I'm venturing into new territory. I was previously a Zaino guy, so I break out one of the two 2oz. spray bottles I picked up from that Sally beauty shop that someone mentioned, shook up the AIO bottle and filled the 2oz. spray bottle about 1/3 full. With my new Pinnacle Polishing Pal + white pad, I set about applying AIO all over the place! Hehe. Thank God I used the white pad cuz it picked up even more dirt!

Now on to the Klasse SG. Filled up my 2nd 2oz. spray bottle with this stuff about 1/4 full. With a MF applicator dampened with the Wolfgang Highgloss Spritz Sealant, I sprayed a panel with one shot from the spray bottle, then immediately used the MF applicator to spread it as thin as possible to cover that panel. Right after that, I used a MF towel to wipe it off. Thankfully, I was in the full shade by then. Did all the painted areas on the car with the Klasse SG, applied the Pinnacle Black Onyx tire gel and called it a day.

Today I finished the windows and applied the Wolfgang High Gloss Spritz Sealant with a 70/30 MF towel. That stuff goes on nice and easy!

I might have to worry if I have plans after a detail :p but then I can just continue the next day.
 
The vehicle looks good, I like the reflection you have achived from it.

Very nice.

sparkie, thanks for posting the pictures up the way you did and don't worry about the size....at least we can't complaint we cant see them hahahaha
 
Thanks for the comments everyone. IMO the best pic is one that isn't shown by sparkie's resizing. I know I spent a long time on detailing the car, but it's the first one and it determines how much work I'll have to do for the rest of the life of the car.

Now I can buy my foam gun to wash the car and then qd in hopefully less than an hour. Next full day detail won't have to be until this fall hopefully.
 
Great detail, sweet car..great reflections

And Sparkie: I think your resizing went in reverse, U made them bigger you did.....j/k
