Hey guys,

So last time i detailed my car was in May of 2012, a little over a year ago. My car had a bunch of swirls and light scratches and water spots and whatnot so I decided to go ahead and fully detail my car today.

Products used/Directions

Washed with Dawn soap - 2 bucket method
Clay barred entire car
washed car again/dried
Megs Microfiber d300 Compound with MF cutting disc
Megs d301 polish with finishing disc
Four Star ultimate paint protection sealant using white foam pad
Chemical guys Blacklight
Blackfire Aluminum compoound with fine grade steel wool for the exhaust polish
stoners window cleaner
Meguiars Ultimate black trim restorer
purple power on wheels then rinsed and cleaned again with soap and water with microfiber towel/dried and sealed with blackfire wet diamond/collinite 845 insulater wax
Ultima tire and trima guard plus used to coat tires and do interior as well



Man! the car is so freakin slick and shiny its unreal, i miss my car being like this as i took a little break from detailing due to school/studying for dental school and work but im back at it again!

anyways

here is some before pictures

















(this was completely removed)






and the AFTERS (sorry guys, I had close ups of all the scratches removed, my wheels cleaned, exhaust, etc but my phone got locked and had to restore it completely and lost everything in my phone but these photos i uploaded to facebook so i downloaded them from there. I will try to get better pictures today














these pictures are completely unedited by the way!

ENJOY!

I am also a professional photographer, So I will be doing a photoshoot soon maybe this week or next week of my car using a Canon 5D MKII with the f2.8 70-200 lens and maybe even the 16-35 wide angle
 
Looks great:)

I love just looking at my work when I'm done, you think of the hard work and how it payed off.
In your case it sure did pay off.
Thanks for taking the time to post it.
 
Turned out really nice. That is a pretty sharp looking accord.

Thanks guys! I love looking at my car, heck I cant even leave my car without turning back and looking at it everytime lol.
 
Car looks great... tastefully modded.

I like the gen coupe wheels... still has an OEM kind of look to it, but way more aggressive.

I graduated last year. Studying for my Dental Admission Test as I didnt do as well as I hoped I would. But I'm going for Dental School. My brother is in his 3rd year in Med School. But cars was and always WILL be my hobby, especially audio and detailing

But heres a few more pics!

Btw heres a few more pics. man the shine just keeps coming!

but like I said before lol, I work with my father doing professional Photography/Videography. He has his own company (i dont get paid by my father though because I dont take money from him but I work for other companies as well and get paid 450 per wedding/event/etc and after I graduated college I worked for a full year at a doctors office so thats when I did most of the mods to my car but Ive been working on it slowly for 3 years now i spent about 8000 on my car (half of it on audio/electronics)







 
Nice! Hello from a fellow V6p/Driveaccord member.
 
Aswesome deep reflections on that Accord. Love the color. Sounds like a sweet audio system you put in it.

My daughter also a professional photographer is now shooting weddings and she loves it, but her real passion is equine photography.

Best of luck to you in your work.
