This is my personal car that is my daily driver. I don't have a garage so the detail was done outside, over 24 hour period of time. I started yesterday at 12 noon, called it a night at about 9pm (used haolgen lighting at night). STarted this morning a 7am, now I am done.
Exterior Process:
Two bucket wash w/grit guard
Foamed with gold class and super soap mix.
Clayed with Last touch
PC 7424xp
M105 w/LC orange pad
M205 w/LC orange pad
M05 w/ LC white pad
M26 w/LC blue pad
wells dressed with HD @ I forgot ratio
Tires got Hot shine, I have tried everything else and always go back to hot shine.
Trim got GC trim detailer
Windows got Glass cleaner @ 10:1
Interior process:
Carpet was dry vac'd and cleaned with LGM
Interior plastics with M40
Since it was late at night when I did most of the work I did not take many pictures. This detail isn't anything to write home about, but being a daily in a type of place where I live, it is good enough. The orange pad wasn't 100% effective but I would estimate about a 95% defect removal. This will most likely be the last time this car see's this type of treatment, it just isnt satisfying anymore. It is a 10 footer car because of all the rock chip and dents. I just focus on customer car's. Until this car gets a respray, it will likely just be a regular wash and quik wax kind of detail now.
This was my first use with M05 by the way, and I LOVED it. Brought out a very nice gloss. My M26 however, was sketchy. I have never had this problem before with it, but it was balling up and spinning off the pad. No big deal though.
