-Polished with Pinnacle Polish Lotion
-Waxed with Pinnacle Souveran Paste Wax

Blazer__
My dad's work truck with 200K+ Miles, he just wanted a quick wash, but it was so dirty it took me 3 hours to wash it.

-Meguiars Detail Shampoo
-Used the Black Schmitt/Pinnacle Bug sponge on whole vehicle to get all the bugs off. Then a light wash over with the white schmitt.
-Dried with Cobra Guzzler
-Some light Polishing for some "black spots" using Pinnacle Polishing Lotion
-Diamondite Glass Surface Cleaner
-Armor All Xtreme Tire Gel

Civic___
First Pic's are being washed with Distilled water in a bug sprayer. Previous week I waxed it using Pinnacle Souveran Wax. As you can see the water really stuck on to the surface, but it was a breeze drying it. After that I used Pinnacle XMT Polish/Swirl Remover #1 and XMT Glaze using PC.

Next pics just a light wash using:
-Pinnacle Shampoo
-White Schmitt
-Cobra Guzzler
-Diamondite Glass Surface Cleaner
-Diamondite Headlight kit
