Well, I want to thank all of you for getting me to this point of addiction. ;) ;) ;)



I've just completed my first pay detailing and the owner was soo happy, that they left me their 4Runner to detail also. I'm waiting for the pictures to come back for that swirl fest.





OK, car #1 was a 5 series BMW. a BLACK BMW no less! WITH dealer installed swirls. :scared



All products are Meguiar's



Here's what I did:

wash with dawn

dry with chamois (sorry, I'm working on getting big MFs)

#83 DACP on a W7006 cutting pad

#9 Swirl remover on a W8006 polishing pad

#7 Show Car Glaze on a W9006 finishing pad (WICKED THIN!!! Thanks to Mike Phillips!!! :bow )

#26 Hi Tech yellow wax

Final Detail.



at this point the car is so different it's almost as if the car is buzzing! You can tell the car is very happy that I've given it so much attention. I mean the car is glowing! :shocked



The interior was in really great shape but was a little dried out. So I gave it a really good drink of EINSZETT Cockpit Premium. TOTALLY AWESOME



Sorry for the quality of the pictures. I had to use a "one use" camera. You can tell I've become an Autopian, I want to buy a 35mm SLR so I can take better car pictures!



here is the before pictures of the hood and rear quarter:
