Well this isn't the typical detail but I thought it might be interesting to see.
I will give you a little background..... this was built and this spring. The 'vehicle' is bombarded by water every 6-8 min all day, 12 hours a day - then the water air dries, leaving this nice thick coat of grime.
I only ended up with one before photo as it seems all before photos were lost in an older digital camera.

After doing a #49/#26 combo wax earlier this summer we realized we were going to need something more powerful prior to using Meguiars products and here is the process we came up with:
1. Zing boat and hull cleaner (powerful stuff) over the entire vehicle.
2. Heavy Duty Oxidation Remover was used by hand only on the black parts as Zing alone wouldn't remove the build up.
3. #66 Quick Detailer with the rotary over the entire vehicle, this stuff looks great!
Before, you can see the haze on the black the entire vehicle was covered in thick calcium/water spot/tuff stuff, this photo really doesn't show how damaged the paint looked(again this is the only photo that survived the unreliable digital camera):
Afters, with my camera:




I can't take credit for all the work we had lots of help. We have gotten many comments 'this looks better than it did when it was new'.
Enjoy!
