Well today I finally had some time to detail my own car. Unfortunately, I have been so busy detailing cars for others that my car has gone untouched since the winter except for a quick wash once a month.
Keep in mind the paint on this car is just over 11 years old, and I am the second owner. When I bought the car I was not yet into detailing and the small scratches didn't bother me at all. Now, of course, it's a different story.
This car was covered in dirt, sap, and water spots when I started.
The Process
1. Wash using NXT Generation Car Wash
2. Clay the entire car using Professional Detailing Clay
3. #80 Speed Glaze
4. ColorX
5. NEW NXT Generation Tech Wax Paste
Wheel and Tires
Hot Rims/Cool Care All Wheel Cleaner
NEW NXT Generation Insane Shine Tire Spray
Trim
NEW Exterior Trim Detailer
Glass
NEW NXT Generation Glass Cleaner
Plastic
PlastX

The image quality isn't great. The lighting made it harder to get good pictures due to all the glare.
Some After-Thoughts
I love NEW NXT Generation Insane Shine Tire Spray! This was my first time using it and it looks great! Also, I love the NEW Exterior Trim Detailer. This stuff works amazingly well and quickly darkened all my plastic trim. I plan on using it on my dad's Honda Element soon.
Let me know what you think. Again, sorry for the poor images.
