Mini Detail on the '90 Accord

[CieraSL]

So, I decided to detail my parents' 1990 Accord again. It wasn't too bad, but the water just wasn't beading the way I wanted it to. I know, very sad. Anyway, thought I would share some pics with you. Please enjoy and comment!

No pics of the interior. All I did was vacuum, dust, and clean the inside windows. Besides, if you've seen this thread, you know what the interior looks like anyway. Total time was about 3 and 1/2 hours (including interior).

Process

Wash with Tip Top Crystal Clean car wash, 2BM, microfiber chenille mitt
Clay with Smooth Surface Clay kit
Wash again
Auto Magic New Car Glaze (polish/finishing glaze)
NXT Tech Wax 2.0
M135 wipedown
Ardex Viper Wax/M135 on windows
Ardex Viper Wax on mirrors and door pillars
UQW on trim around the middle of the car
Tip Top Super Shine dressing on trim on bottom of the car
Hot Shine tire coating in wheel wells
Endurance tire gel on tires

Sorry for the crummy quality of this pic. My point and shoot doesn't do macro shots very well. Exhaust tip: cleaned with SwirlX, polished with Hot Rims Chrome Polish, sealed with M21.

Thanks for looking!

Very nice car.(A bit rounder at the edges than the '89 that i had).It's a great car to drive.

Anyway,nice work.The plastic trim turned out really good.The wheel trims are in really good condition.
