I had a bit of a treat to work on today, brand new car, hasn't even seen a car wash yet! Paint was in perfect condition, so no polishing was needed, but everything needed to be sealed and protected inside and out.
The car is a very light powder blue which was very difficult to work on. I ended up sealing most of the car twice, once with PC once by hand to make sure I got everything covered as it was very hard to see the product coverage. The car is a daily driver, so I opted for just sealant as our Iowa winters are coming soon.

Products:
DP Tire cleaning Gel w/ various brushes
Lambs wool Mitt, 2 bucket method w/ grit guards, Pinnacle bug pad
WG Auto bath
Cobra water guzzler towels
Cobra purple towels to polish (first time using, and they are great! just got more bogo)
Meg's APC+ 4:1 shoe marks / trim cleaning
Mothers Reflections leather care
Stoners Invisible Glass
DP Tire Gloss Gel w/ foam applicator and brush.
A ton of blue painters tape
Aerospace 303 on all exterior trim and interior trim excluding leather
Wolfgang Deep Gloss sealant 3.0
PC w/ 5'' Red Pad

Very rarely do we get the opportunity to work on a car that is already in great shape and just needs some loving preventative maintenance, so enjoy:
Brand New, smells new!
Just after washing
Paint is perfect
The only thing on the surface is a bit of dust
Taped off and ready to go, this car has more external trim that I have run into before.
A lot of shoe marks for only 700 miles
Interior treated with 303, leather treated with mothers reflections. Don't worry I got the smudge on the wood panel.
Scuff marks removed, APC+ is very useful stuff.
Finished Shots: ------
Thanks everyone for all of the posts, I learn a ton of new things here every day.
5 hours and back to a very impressed owner Im the MAN
