Well it was finally warm enough to try out my new Poorboys PC package I got from Autogeek. I apologize I just got done and I have class in the AM so i'll have to post pictures tomorrow. Anyway, the method was:
Clean Wheels and Tires with Free Wheel and White Flag (I get these from a local supplier they do a pretty damn good job)
Wash entire car with two bucket method using NXT and clayed
Dried with MF and let sit for about 10 minutes to let excess water evaporate
Polished with the PC at 4.5-5.5 using a polishing pad and SSR1
S&W entire vehicle and again let set for about a half hour
Waxed using a finishing pad on PC at 2 with some stuff called Finish Line (again local supplier - I do have the natty's but I was crunched for time and didn't want to hand wax the entire vehicle)
Removed the wax using a MF and some QD
Dressed the tires using some NXT dressing (and while i was bringing it in i dropped the damn bottle and it broke open on my deck - not very happy about that) - I do like the dressing however it worked rather well and looks great!
I then dressed the rest of the trim using some Red Flag (local stuff)
It was my first time using the PC. I recommend it for anyone - it is super easy to use and produces great results. I hadn't washed my truck since probably November or December and it needed it. After I had dried it I did notice some slight swirls which were promptly taken care of when I polished. That SSR1 does some good stuff. I can't wait to use the SSR2.5 and my light cutting pad on my dad's avalon (he washes it with a deck brush...AHH I KNOW)
Like I said i'll get some pictures up tomorrow after I do the interior.
PS if anyone sees anything wrong with my method please let me know!
