I recently polished my '08 Nissan Altima. There are little (maybe 3 1/2" X 3 1/2") patched located just in front of the rear wheel wells. They are small and easy to forget.... After I'd applied my first coat of OS, and looked at the car in a different angle/light, I noticed some remaining...

Been putting together a plan to completely detail our DDs. Pretty much have decided on my products and tools. But when I look at the time involved to do it right, it will take more than a few evenings. Detailing the interior isn't a big deal since I can obviously do that over the course of an...
