Mondays are a normal day off for me, so like last week, I spent it detailing.

Washed with normal carwash soap.
Clayed with Clay Magic blue clay bar, I used ONR as my clay lube.
Swirl remover, I used Wolfgang Total Swirl Remover
Glazed, I used Wolfgang Finishing Glaze 3.0
First coat of two of sealant, I used Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant 3.0
Polished and sealant on all the glass and lights.

Quick wipe down of the engine bay, and some 303 Aerospace Protectant.
Adams Super VRT on all the rubber and plastic trim

Interior got:
Lexol leather cleaner on the seats and steering wheel
Optimum Leather protectant on seats and steering wheel
Megs Interior cleaner on all the plastic and rubber
303 on all the clean plastic and rubber.
Touch screen cleaned
Gauge faces cleaned
Glass cleaned with Megs Perfect Clarity Glass Cleaner
Carpet vacuumed and lint rolled.
 
I like these cars... I have yet to meet an ST owner that didn't like them. Lookin' Fly!
 
Looks great man! Get those windows tinted and it will look even better:)
 
Wow thanks for the kind words everyone.
Yea JHL88 I really like it, it moves along plenty quick, handles great, and plenty of room for the wife and kids.
Sicoup tint is on my short list of things to do.
 
Nice work. Im an ST driver too. How are you finding your exhaust tip? Mine is a constant state of black. Whatd you use on the pillars? mine are a mess.

I use P21s on the outside of the tip, and apc at 15:1 inside with a cheap stiff brush. Gets the inside ok but not great.

For the pillars I used Wolfgang Total Swirl Remover with a white pad just like the body. I then sealed them with Wolfgang DGPS

Which APC did you use? I tried Spray-9 but didn't have very good luck.
 
La totally awesome from the dollar store. It took a few applications, and some dwell time. Not sure they will ever be perfect on this car, I think that is a down side to direct injection
 
Love that blue, works well with the car very well. Haven't seen many STs in the wild myself.
