Thanks for your encouraging words and cheers. it's so much appreciated

Here's how i proceeded.

car was washed using a mix of local MPC and shampoo using 2BM, then clayed with Bilt Hamber regular clay.

i wetsanded the whole car 2000 grit, refined with 2500, then compounded with rotary, Optimum hyper compound and its double-sided wool pad. I refined with Menzerna 203s on LC white pad, then finished with collinite 476s.

glass was restored with DP high performance glass restorer to remove the water spots.


thanks again n cheers :bigups
