First C&B. Criticisms on technique and results welcome.



Well, this was the first time detailing my own personal car since i got my new PC. I'd like to apologize in advance for the horrid pics, old camera, no tripod, blaring Arizona sun makes it hard to take decent ones. I also forgot interior pics, lol. Sorry again, my next one will be better I promise.



Process:

1. Quick rinse on the heavy dirt.

2. ONR (Wheels got 1:2 APC degreaser w/ brushing and wipe down.)

3. Cracks, crevices, doorjambs with ONR spray that I made.

4. Poorboy's Polish w/ Sealant, Sonus Orange Pad, 1500rpms

5. Poorboy's EX-P Pure Sealant, hand applicator, let sit for about 3 mins. (**** dries fast here. :))

6. Windows with Eagle 20/20

7. Meguiar's PlastX on headlights. They were a bit yellow in the beginning. I tried it by hand at first, went way to slow. So I popped on the stock pad that came with the PC, and used that. Went way faster, and awesome results. Can't tell really in the pics, but in person the change is amazing.



Interior:

1. Quick vacuum with interior brush.

2. APC 1:10 on light marks and stuff on the plastics, dashboard, etc...

3. Meguiar's Quik Interior Detailer on the electronics, fake grain panels, etc..

4. Water/Woolite on carpets, Oxy Clean spray for stains (came right out with a bit of brushing.)

5. Vacuum



Onto pics (sorry again):

I have a couple gripes about the Poorboy's products atm, but I won't get into it right now. I'm hungry.
