2015 Camaro 1LT Black full detail with polish
Full materials and tool list at the end
This car was hammered! Lots of scratches and swirls. This was quite a job to get a mirror shine on this car. I didn't get all the scratches out, but it looks 1000% better and the customer was thrilled!

I did a full interior detail with carpet shampoo and seat cleaning. After 2 hours of work on the interior, it was time to start the exterior.
I washed the wheels first. Then I washed the car, followed by claying. I used real clay, and clay pads and blocks depending on the area of the car. I prefer to use a machine to clay but there are areas on a Camaro that the machine won’t fit. After claying, I started with the dual action polisher, an orange pad and Meguiar’s M100 compound. I followed with a white pad and Meguiar’s D166 Ultra Polishing Wax all in one polish. I like this polish because it does not dust.
Before
Much better!
After the polish job, I washed the car again to remove all the dust and applied Gyeon Wet Coat sealant.
I dressed the tires and sprayed air freshener.
Light was getting low.
