I just wanted to show off my freshly cleaned ride.



Process:



Wash w/ Meguairs Gold Class

Clayed w/ blue Clay Magic

ScratchX whole car by hand

Meg's Step One paint cleaner whole car by hand

Meg's NXT

I'll put a coat of carnauba after the NTX cures.



Stoners on glass and Meg's gel tire dressing on tires



any tips, suggestions, comments are welcomed.

there still some deep swirls like this all over the car that NTX couldn't hide. Would a glaze be better at hiding?

Also, any suggestions to add some more depth to my paint?
 
That looks really good for doing it by hand. If you want to improve the paint you should invest in a PC ( Porter Cable DA polisher). Those swirls will be very difficult to remove by hand, even with a good poilsh that could take days and still not come all out. Poilshing with a PC will give you the clarity and depth you are looking for as well.
 
Agreed, the best way to take your finish to the next level is using a PC to deep polish it. Honda clears respond very well to Optimum Polish and Meguiars #80 for light to moderate swirl removal.



Other than the swirls, the paint looks excellent! :)
