Well let me say it is always good to see Alex. I have not in nearly a year due to not be able to get to the track but he made trip down from Western Mass to be here for 7 AM, what a trooper.
This was a Exterior only w/ Door Jambs and Tires.
It was very fun to work on a LT1 Body style and more so a different color that is now rarely seen.
So anyways, I just got my Makita Buffer but I am in the middle of gathering supplies so a full swirl removal would have to wait but we can do that for the start of the Spring in 2011.
For my Process I basically stuck with the tried and true Meguiar's Combo.
Wash- Meg's Gold Class Wash
Clay- Mother's Clay Bar (was not much on the car, included quick rewash)
Cleaner/Glaze- Meg's M07 Showcar Glaze (applied thinly with my wax spreader) Buffed with clean terry cloth
Sealant- Meg's NXT 2.0 (allowed to dry and buffed with Terry Cloth)
Wax- Meg's M26 Hi-tech Yellow Wax (same as NXT)
Booster- Meg's Ultimate Quick Wax (final wipe with MF towels)
Rims- Water Rinse, Bleech White, Scrubbed with various brushes and rinse
Tires- Water Rinse, Bleech White, Scrubbed, Dried, Armor All Extreme Shine.
Here are the Results. Looking for more stuff to work on and get more practice, I hope to be ready to go with the Buffer.
