          Wash: Hyper wash
          Clay: Detail Clay (mild) and LT as lube
          Cleaner: AIO
          LSP: #21

          Interior:

          Another hand app detail. That's 2 in a row. I'm really liking the new even coat applicators.

            I was debating which products, but the scope of the detail changed from exterior only to full. As you can see I was running short on time and had already washed 5 other cars. I skipped polishing this time. I started at a little after 4:30 and was complete by 8:00.

            Please notice the trim. I used the Accent dressing (spray) for the first time. Very nice product.

              Big ups to the Accent Dressing! A friend came by today and his car was kind of ashy so I grabbed the spray out of my car and touched up HALF of the plastic at the base of his windshield. He said he was on his way to grab a can of it.

                Accent dressing rocks. I was using adams before but shipping took to long. I saw the Meguiar's brand in the detail catalog and decided to give it a try. I read the consumer and pro catalogs like daily.

                The owner was impressed with my work and said he'd be back. He's going to a car show tomorrow with his clean ride. I hope he does well.

                  Hey Scrub,

                  Nice work as always! The Vette looks better than when it was brand new!

                      As you see in the subject the owner did well at the car show today. He gave me a call on the way back from the show and said he won Best in Show. He went on to say he usually wins first place but hadn't ever won Best in Show before.

                      Funny thing is I detailed his car as I would detail any vehicle. The only thing I did different is used Accent dressing and 303 Interior Cleaner/Conditioner. Every thing else was the same.

                      I'm just real excited and wanted to say thanks to everyone on the forum and Meguiar's for their help and support in my first year as a member of MOL.

                          the C6 is a sad attempt at cosmetic refinement.
