Well, it has been awhile since I've been on here....a good year or more since I've been active much. I went through a spell of owning car's that couldn't be detailed or weren't worth my time to detail. First was a 91 Civic that had such thin paint that after one detail, I couldn't polish if I wanted to. Second was a Chevy Prism that I drove when we got my wife a new car.
Well, I finally have a decent car again. 1996 Accord EX-L V6. I detailed it with the following.
Gold Class Wash
Clay w/ Megs. The paint had so many contaminants that I couldn't use ONR as lube like usual. The clay just stuck. I had to use FK1-425 to get it slick enough to move the clay. Clayed the car 3-4 times over most of the car.
PC and SSR2.5 w/ Orange LC pad
PC and Megs 80 w/ White LC pad
Megs 21
Megs 26 (after 12 hours)
Wipedown with FK1-425
Sorry I didn't photograph the entire process...getting lazy I guess. Here's the afters
Honestly, I'm not as pleased with the M21/M26 combo as I was on the Black Integra I used to have. On my integra, this combo was dripping wet. I guess I'll have to start looking into some different LSP's.
