This is my '02 Oldsmobile Intrigue. I was finally able to do a full detail on it this weekend. The process took me two days (all by hand) but the car has never looked so good. I've always taken good care of it so I didn't have much to correct and my car fortunately has never had swirl marks. My wife's van is another story as some of you may know from my other posts.
The van is a "work in progress". Anyway, here is the process I embarked upon this weekend and the products used.

-Gold Class Wash Shampoo & Conditioner
-Sheepskin mitt
-2 bucket method with Grit Guards
-Dried with The Absorber and Armor-All waffle weave drying cloth

-Clayed the horizontal surfaces with Smooth Surface Clay Kit
-DC1 Paint Cleaner
-ScrathX on a couple of tough spots
-DC2 Polish
-NXT wax 2.0 (I only had time for one coat)

-Cleaned with Westley's Bleche-Wite
-Dressed with Endurance tire gel
Wheels (clear-coated):
