1998 Eclipse - Extreme Makeover

[teklein]

Hey!

I recently fell in love with detailing, as well as found a store that stocks the Professional line of products down the road from me!

These are the materials I used:

Gold Class Soap
ScratchX
SwirlX
Gold Class paste wax

I used a random orbital buffer for the ScratchX, then the SwirlX. Wax was by hand.

First I wash the car I was left with this:



Close up of hood:



All taped up:



ScratchX hood:



SwirlX hood:



First coat of wax roof:



And DONE!:







I also buffed the headlights with the ScratchX and SwirlX, then PlastX, then wax:



Im happy with it! 255k miles never looked better!

Looks like Swirl X did a good job at removing those swirls

I applied ScratchX and SwirlX by random orbital, then waxed by hand!

All of the buffing off was by hand.

What kind of random orbital do you use? Foam or microfiber pads? SwirlX looks very promising. Good job.
