So a co-worker of mine finally bit the bullet and bought a new car...of course it was black...and of course all signs pointed to poor dealer prep....more holograms than a pokemon card.....and swirl city
on to the process:
WASH
Pressure rinsed then foamed down with Citrus Wash n Gloss...mirco chenille mitt and a buckets of ONR...my new way of washing/rinsing at the same time...dried with an ultimate guzzler
WHEELS
PB Spray and Rinse...still the best stuff out there...blasted all the grime of with my power washer once i let it sit for a while
CLAY
Lubed with ONE and used a mild gray detailing clay...marred the hell out of the paint but i knew I was polishing anyway
PAINT CORRECTION
Menzerna Nano Polish (PO106ff) and edge2k green wave pad....the car was just marred from my clay and lightly swirled and cobwebbed...also had a million holograms...funny i could follow the trail of the last person who buffed it based on the holograming
GLASS
Sprayway glass cleaner as always and my new 1 dollar waffle weave microfiber towel from wal-mart...
GLAZE
Not something i normally do but i had some RMG laying around so i decided to give it a whirl....made the paint very wet...smelled like donkey butt....i will stickto skipping this step as I always do...(FMINUS the RMG is heading your way)
LSP
It was getting hot so i finished up and slapped on a layer of Petes53...was debating using jetseal but i figured the RMG would create bonding issues if i used a sealant
THE PICS!!!!
HMMM GROSS
HOOD BEFORE
HOOD AFTER
ACTION SHOTS:awesome:
taking care of a curb check....
TRUNK AFTER
THE CAR
THE MONEY SHOT
