What did you do detailing wise today?

[PapaChop]

Worked my wife's QX56 today. It was washed last night.

Clay: DI Fine Clay, Meguiar's Quik Detailer
Aggressive Polish: Meguiar's MF Xtra Cutting Discs with D300, also Lake Country Purple Foamed Wool with M105
Finishing Polish: Meguiar's MF Buffing Discs with D302, switched to Lake Country White Polishing Pads with M205 after two sections

Tomorrow it gets another wash (Gilmour Foam with CG Citrus Wash), then CG EZ Creme Glaze, Blackfire Wet Diamond, and Menzerna Color Lock.

Finished up my MKZ today for its spring clean up...it now has over 80K miles. The front facia and edge of hood showing some age from the road abuse.

Process:

• Clay barred front facia with Mother Clay bar and Mothers Showtime
• Cleaned paint with Four Star Pre-Wax Cleaner using Rupes 15 with blue Uber pad - first time use of the paint cleaner.
  The Four Star Pre-Wax cleaner is a bit thicker and oilier than other paint cleaners I have used. Worked fine just need to use less to keep from extra wipe off.
• Paint prepped CarPro Eraser
  If you ever use Eraser, you will not likely go back to IPA. Effortless.
• Cleaned trim with Mothers Trim Cleaner - first time use
  Worked well, gelish made it easy to use with a towel to scrub surfaces
• Protected trim with Ultima Trim Tire Guard
• Cleaned and protected plastic chrome with Mothers Cleaner Wax
• Cleaned tires with Mothers Back to Black Tire Renew
• Wheel wells dressed with Solution Finish
• Chrome wheels cleaned with Mothers Chrome Polish
• Tires with Wolfgang Black Onyx Tire Dressing
  Crisp look with satin(?) sheen
• Paint protected with Wolfgang Deep Paint Sealant
  Super easy, quick haze, fairly slick, not a lot of depth as some but nice gloss and clarity
• Weather seals protected with Mothers Back to Black
• Under hood area cleaned with Ultima Waterless Wash Plus with some RaceGlaze brush and towels
  The original definition of almost unlimited use cleaner - interior or exterior
• Engine dressed with Sonus Trim and Motor Cote
• Glass cleaned with Sprayway Glass Cleaner

Finished up my MKZ today for its spring clean up..

I drove it to work today. It has been a dust magnet. I may do a wipe down with WG Spritz Sealant. This was one of the first time in recent memory that I did the LSP last after doing the wheels, trim, except for the glass.

I did what I call a quick wash and it still took me an hour from the time I walked outside to when I finished up. It did spend 5 minutes removing some water marks.

I used Auto Finesse Lather (about 3/4 oz in 3 gallons) and cleaned up the jambs with Mothers Showtime (the cinnamon scent has a kick). I did not redress tires (Wolfgang looked great).

That would be about the same time for me

Well Since I had some time I went ahead and tried out some of my PolishAngel products and applied the Viking Shield. My car was pretty clean so I just pulled out the foam gun and gave it a good lathering. Before I did that I tried some PolishAngel ULTRARED. Seemed to work pretty good on the nasty stuff stuck on the paint

After cleaning and drying the car I used Polish Angel's Escalate Lotion. Man this stuff was amazing. A little went a long way and it left the paint nice and smooth. Here's a shot after I was done using it.

Made sure the paint was clean and then applied some Viking Shield. Oh boy does this stuff make the paint pop. Here are some shots after I was done. Too bad the sun not to stay up for me.

Now I cant wait to try Flake and Aqua on my upcoming regular washes. Good stuff for sure.
