Greetings from a newwwb.

Hi guys, glad to be here. I have tinkered with detailing my personal cars for 3 years or so, then friends and family cars.

With the PC7424XP kit with M105/M205 that I got here I got decent at this art.

I enjoy this work as it is pretty satisfying.

Here is an '08 Accord d I did yesterday with 170,000 miles.

Before

Fender 50/50

Hood buff no glaze or wax.

Passenger door, never mind the scratch was too deep to fix.

Pass door, glaze, no wax.

Done.

I used

M205 on LC CCS orange pad
Megs #7 glaze on a LC black CCS pad
Megs NXT 2.0 applied with a LC flat red pad
Removed wax with a MF towel

Wet sand front bumper with 2000 and buff out with M205.
:buffing:

Let's hope glaze is never needed...

I do it on some cars because it looks killer, not because its needed to hide anything.

Black cars especially. I rarely use it.

I am reading about paint sealants in place of wax, Blackfire wet diamond seems to be a good product.
