Beautiful NSX Detailed

I had the pleasure of detailing a friends NXS. I've had it for several days and had a blast detailing it. From a distance the car didn't look bad at all but once you got direct sunlight on it, it was really swirled up and was in desperate need of a good claying too as it felt like sandpaper in some areas. I clyed the car and then I started polishing with Menzerna SIP on an orange LC pad. After the initial polishing, I polished it again with 106FF on a white LC pad to bring the paint up to a high gloss. After that the car was washed again and I then applied a coat of DWG and then a coat of UPGP. I let that cure over night and then did another coat of DWG and another coat of UPGP and let it cure overnight again. The next day I wiped the car down with Zaino Z-8. On the tires I used Zaino Z-16 and Eagle One Nano Protectant on the interior. When all was done, the car felt smoother than glass and I saw no swirls when back in the sun. All in all the polishing took me about 4 days (I took my time as he didn't need the car right back), but I figured I spent a minimum of 15 hours on it. So, here are some of the shots.

great work! what process did you use on the CF wing?





I just used a little sip on a white lc pad. A couple spots were pretty rough so I then changed to an orange lc pad. After it was corrected, I went over it again with 106ff and the white pad.
