This was strictly an exterior detail this bad boy was swirled up something fierce. The car belongs to a friend who used to detail years ago but doesn't have the desire or time anymore. he now runs his own automotive repair shop but it has a wash bay and room for someone to detail...
. So maybe this was an interview of sorts. anyway on to the car
Process:
Wash: Meguiars gold class
Clay: medium clay (brand not sold by ag)
Dry: The Guzzler Waffle Wave by Cobra
Wanted to use the Solo system by Meguiars. I tried the light cutting wool pad for time sake, but ended up frustrated and going to the yellow polishing pad. I think in part because of improper cleaning , I have a spur but I should have washed the pad periodically to avoid the product build up. Chalk it up to inexperience with wool.... lesson learned.
Correction:
Flex 603 W/yellow solo polishing pad and solo cut and polish cream. also used a 3in. orange pad for the tight areas.
Finishing: PC 7424 w/white ccs polishing pad and Meguiars 205 toped with pinnacle sovereign
Before:
After:
none tell the story better than the next 2 pics
the car was riddled with RIDS but the swirls came out nice maybe the next time.... and according to the owner there will be a next time ill try Ultimate compound or maybe 105 and we might be able to nock those RIDS's down a bit.
Oh and by the way interview successful he's making room for me in his shop :dblthumb2:
Thanks for looking. feedback /suggestions welcome. :buffing:
