So I did my sisters red Ford explorer this afternoon and man it was bad! No paint correction on this one as you will see, with her its not worth the hassle lol.
Process was:
-Wash with gold class three bucket method
-Clay with SS clay and last touch as lube
-Wax with M26
-Tires and wheel wells cleaned with APC+ at 4:1 (some wheels needed a little wheel brightener
-Tires and wheel wells dressed with hyperdressing
-Trim dressed with blackwow, than switched to hyper dressing just cause lol
Interior:
-cleaned with some APC and magic erasers in areas
-cleaned and dressed with M40
-QID in some places
(still need to shampoo carpets as I didnt have time. Alright on to pictures
Before
Here you can see some of the swirls not worth taking out. They are much worse in person but coudnt seem to capture them very well
^this cleaned up rather easy to what I thought
^ not the whiteness in the steering wheel and the discoloration of the shifter in the below pic.
Sorry for all the pics got a little picture happy
edit: dont know where my dash pic went but it was terrible. It felt like sap and it was so rough! Had to take the magic eraser to it before hitting it with M40 just to somewhat clean it to a desirable look. Turned the white magic eraser black!

That interior came out pretty darn good if you ask me. 
! Don't understand why some people absolutely do not care. I saw a Jeep on the road the other day that looked like it came straight from the junkyard. Sounded like it, too. Most of the clear was gone, one of the back windows was gone - it wasn't pretty. I think it was originally black, but the paint was so oxidized that it was more of a gray color and actually turning white in some areas. If it makes you feel any better, my sister rarely cleans her car either. I think it's been about a month and a half, maybe longer, since she last washed it. The funny thing, the birds always poop on her car - they rarely poop on mine 
. Makes her mad. Oh well. Again great job, and good luck on finishing it!
