2007 Chevy Avalanche with about 11k miles. Originally was going to be a 1-step but it turned into a "2.5" step.
Wash:
CG CW&G 2BM, microfiber chenille mitt, foam gun
P21S wheel gel, Meg's Wheel Brighter cut 4:1 on suborn brake dust
Mothers wheel brush
EZ Detail wheel brush
OXO tire brush
Wheels clayed with "eBay" gray clay
Paint:
Mothers yellow clay, ONR
G110, orange, UC
G110, white, Swirl-X
^this was leaving some nasty DA marks so I ended up doing most of the truck with the following (via rotary):
UC, Green CCS
Swirl-X, Black CCS
3M UF, Black CCS to remove light holograms in places
RMG via G110, blue CCS pad
Collinite 476S
FK425
Adams Undercarriage
Optimum Optibond on tires, rear mud flaps
Interior:
Leather treated with Sonus to clean and protect front seats
Meg's QID on dash
------------------------------
Only 9.5 hours total on this beast so the paint isn't near perfect in many places.
On to the photos, before and during:
