Did my friends gfs 2000 Focus, probably never clay bared or detailed.

Sorry for the lack of pictures i was pressed for time, wheels and tires werent cleaned or dressed because the wheels couldnt be cleaned with what i had so im going to invest in some wheel acid or citrus wheel cleaner. I tried using an old clay bar but the dust/dirt wouldn't budge. Didnt dress the tires because the rims were filthy



I was surprised that on hard paint even working the compound a little it didnt haze or hologram much.



Process:

Clayed entire vehicle with Meguiars clay, 1hr spent right there. Use GC as lubricant.

OC w/Yellow @1400RPM 2-3Passes

Poli-Seal w/white @1400rpm

1 Coat of NXT

Compounded the headlights as well
