    I seem to be pushing towards 2 coats of 205 with my G110 and then 2 coats of NXT ...Red really seems to pop out with this combination...

    The dealer said they Simonized it which they seem to believe is a great finish for a new car.....:>))) I will decide once I get my G110 and my products..for now it sits and waits.

    nice work, M205 is looking a promising product (only just be released in the UK so pretty hard to get hold of currently)

    great job Rasky on the Kia

    paint looks great, that red is glowing!!

    Thanks.

    I used Meguiars Detailer line glass cleaner to remove the oxidation from the rubber trim. I used APC+ and Hyper Dressing on the motor.

    Thanks, and you're welcome!

    Floor mats are pretty easy. Vacuum, pretreat with APC/APC+, pressure wash them until clean (wide patter nozzle, don't get to close) and wet vac them. You can also hand scub them or use the LGM, but when they are this dirty it's faster using the pressure washer.

    On the interior I used a wet vac, Bissell Little Green Machine ($90), carpet brush, and some APC+. So to answer your question, you can easily get the same results as me without a high end extractor or steamer....though one of those would be nice.

    Thanks Guys! I've been very impressed with M205 so far. I was pretty amazed at some so the scratches I was able to take out with just a little more pressure focused on them.

    One thing I've really noticed with M205 is "what you see is what you get". No filling/hiding what so ever.

    The interior wasn't too bad actually; it was just the driver's side for the most part.
