This is my brothers 1995 Infiniti J30t. It is his baby. Since the day he got the car it has been pampered as much as otc products can provide. We as of late we have seen the light and are now using profesional/hobbyist grade products. My brother frequently washes and waxes the car so the finish was in pretty good shape with light to moderate swirling. It has 170,000 miles and is 11 years old but after this detail the finish looked new. Proper maintenance provided him a good starting surface to work with. I only helped with the last step of natty's blue, other than that this is all his work.
Here is the process he followed:

1. Wash with pb's super slick and suds
2. Polish with pb's ssr 2.5 by pc spread at 3 work in at 5
3. Sealed with pb's ex by pc at 3, let cure for 18hrs
4. Topped with Natty's Blue by pc at speed 3.5

The Natty's really made it pop, here are the results:

For a car of it's "experience" it really looks beautiful. My brother said he wouldn't mind keeping this car forever and if he continues his current regimine the finish will certainly last that long. This is his car's first appearance on detail city!
 
The wheel wells were a spot of great debate for me and my brother. There is alot of salt on the roads around here and as soon as they see any road time they go back to looking like that. My brother actually did dress the wells with natural look but it didn't hold up through a quick trip to the gas station. Thanks for the complements guys, my brothers' girlfriend actually gets jealous of the time he spends on this car.
 
The headlights are tempermental b/c they are glass. They also have those little nobs that stick out so our regular pads won't work. We need spot buff's. One of the headlights also has a crack in the bottom so it needs to be replaced before it fogs up severly, I think it's the driver side.
