Wash: I always start out with wheels first and exterior trim .. Once I’m all finish with the wheels I spray the car down and then load up my CWG in the foam gun and let it dwell on the car for a few minutes and proceed with the two bucket method.

Trunk Before:



Out of all the panels on the car, this had to be the worse and required extra time to correct. There were burn marks from the last detailer, heavy swirling and some wet sanding areas that weren’t properly accessed.

Trunk After: I use three different products to achieve these results. First was SIP with a orange pad at 1500 to 1800 rpm’s, then when the finish was corrected I finished it up with 106ff on a white pad at 1300 rpm’s thenen finally I jeweled the paint at variable speeds with a blue pad and PO85RD.

Taillights Before:



These were also swirled badly, and required attention.

Taillights After:



This was after two passes of 106ff and a white pad.

And here a few shots of the final product with no sealant or wax and also a little touch up on the exhaust.. The true shine of the car is all in the prep.
