I woke up early this morning in order to use my PCDA for the first time and do a full NXT detail on my MINI. I was at both MINI Meguiar's Clinics but didn't have my car done last time. I got all the products and sat back and learned. So in the Tradition of Mike Here is my Black Detailing outfit:

I know I should have taken before pictures but I just wanted to get started so these are all after. Before my car was a little dirty and not nearly as shinny.

I started off with a little bit of NXT CarWash to clean the boot, then quick detailed the rest.

The Compresssion on the image kills some of the nice detail, I can upload a highres one if anyone wants to see it.

After the Quick Detail I used the PC/DA and #83 to get some marks of out my Bonnet, Mirrors, and Roof.

Then onto the NXT TechWax, Did it just like Mike showed me, was easy and fun.

How nice is that?
Then Did Trim detailer and hotshine on the wheels.
Then I finished it off with the GoldClass Metal Polish (almost the same as NXT Metal Polish)

Now THAT'S what I call shinny.

Wow... is that the sun back there in those pictures?

I wouldn't know what that would look like considering that we have 4" of snow on the friggin' ground and it's been cloudy for the past week. :(

Great pics Brad!

There are advantages to being in Southern Californa other than being near Meguiar's :D

I checked out your site, nice pictures of your truck. I will have to post some of my Friend's F150 Lightning. He has 2 Red modes of transport, the Lightning and a Ducati.

Looks nice, I can't wait to try NXT on red. The picture of the hood only is fantastic!
