***This is a copy and paste from another forum I am on (it's been a long day) so please excused the non-megs related details.***
Wow, I am beat, so please excuse the lack of detail (no pun intended) in explaining each pic
Car was washed yesterday, so I just ONR'd it.
Clayed the whole thing with Clay Magic and ONR lube.
Proceeded to polish with Ultimate Compound to see how well it worked for initial correction with my rotary, megs w64 BP, and LC orange pad.
My biggest hiccup with this car was the hood! I couldn't get the freaking swirls out for the life of me! I went as aggressive as I could : megs light wool pad, M105, and speed 3 on the Hitachi. HOLOGRAMS FTL! Another, was the vinyl stripes. How the heck do you clean those?
Well, I followed the wool pad with a LC white pad and Menz Polish...BAM! correction at its finest
I used Megs #39 Vinyl Cleaner on the rearview mirrors and the area around the wipers. This was my first time using this products. Im very impressed!
Followed with Megs Trim Detailer.
I was pressed for time, so I didnt get to complete the car (my friend wanted me to do what I could since he's selling it. Mainly wanted the outside taken care of.) I've learned that I hate black paint.
On a brighter note, I got to test the PakShak Tire Cleaner. Wow! Just as good as the APC! 5:1 dilution. I did two passes just to make sure suds were white so I could apply Tuf Shine.
I did happen to do another tire with the Tuf Shine Cleaner and the PakShak holds its own. Very promising for those who are going to buy in the future.
I also managed to get the inside and outside of the glass done too. Used MX7 waterspot remover. I've gotten used to the way the HIS Waterspot remover worked, so this was different. You could really feel it removing the film of built up residue. Very good product.
I think that's it, so on to the pics(they should be in order. also, the spots at the end are rain. It started up as I started taking pics of completion):
