My first C&B!!!

[imported_bigfoot1]

Well, I have been a member for a while here in Autopia, but never been able to do a C&B, but today was my day!!!:getdown Weather here in NE Ohio got milder so I was able to finally try my new PB stuff plus wash the car! You gotta love PB, it's the best(at least for me so far)! I started around 9:30am and it was barely above freezing point, so imagine how my hands were... Anyways, here's the process:



Clean tires with Turtle Wax Hard Shell Tire & Wheel Cleaner

Clean engine Simple Green 10:1 (No dressing to it):nervous:

Wash with Turtle Wax Platinum Car Wash and conditioner

Clay with Rightlook's Light Clay and using TW Car wash as lube(the clay held up great!)

Wash again

Dress tires with Mother's FX Tire Shine

Dress wells with AA on plastics and WD-40 on exposed areas (gives a nice satin shine)

PB Polish w/Carnauba blue by hand :soscared: No PC yet, but saving for it...

Clean glass with Coastal Glas cleaner (cheapo of Stoners, but works as good)

Admire...:drool:

Take Ibuprofen....:aww:



I wasn't able to apply Natty's blue since it got dark on me and it was starting to fog at 5:30...whoppee... Interior will be done tomorrow since I concentrated on the exterior today, and I will post pics of it tomorrow, but here's the plan:



Use Rainbow E2 Vacuum to vacum the whole interior

Folex on mats

Simple Green 10:1 on plastics

Meguiar's Quick interior Detailer on plastics

Coastal Glass Cleaner on glass



Well, here are the pics, Hope you enjoy as much as I did doing it!

On this last one you can see the contaminants on the clay from just a panel!

Very nice job! Even just using PB's Polish w/carnauba, your paint has great glow. When you put Natty's over it, you should see a noticable increase in wetness too-so post more pics.
