Finally detailed the Mazda's

[rurocking]

Hi there all...

I bought these in March of 2010 brand new and I've been slack at caring for them. I did regular 2 bucket washes when weather permits, but the CWP is my daily driver and for the past year its been park in an office construction zone. Every day with flying dust and dirt. It was really hard through the winter to even getting it washed. Anyway, I just spent the last 4 days detailing both of them.

It was great to work with. I used the supplied applicator but used some of my "The Cookie Monster Buffing Towel V2.0" to remove the wax. The results were great. The feel of the cars is just like an expensive mirror. After all the reading I done on wax it's the only one that many times people mentioned how clear it was, and I wanted to make sure I wasn't yellowing the white.

What were your reactions from the wife when you got done?

She like it, but wondered why anyone would spend 2 days cleaning a car. But she did notice just how shiny it was.

What were your reactions to the products/equipment you used any trouble?

The thing I was impress the most with is the "The Thief XXX Glass Towel". I used just plain Auto Windex and I have never seen car windows this clean.
Second was the Autoglym HD. I can't stop going in the garage and feeling the surface.

The reflection shot on the white really pops and looks great! looks like you did a great job.

Thank you. It's a hard paint to take pictures of because it's white. But I found this spot in the sun that really showed off the pearl flakes.

He was wondering why it look the best at the show. His car had some many swirls that needed a detail. I sold him a $500 job on his ride.
