I just recently purchased a 98 Lexus es300 from my father in law(more like stole at the price he sold it to me) It was his company car and was detailed by a local company. Nothin fancy but the last 6 months to year it wasnt. The car is in overall excellent shape..no dings very few rock chips no major scratches. Interior needs cleaning(scuffs on door panels) and leather is not cracked but would like it softer. Paint has virtually no swirling visible and VERY minimal marring/webbing. Absolutely no beading or sheeting so obviously not waxed or none left.I plan to clay w/ either the perfect shine clay or wait for the new improved sonus brand block glide and waffle as there are some contaminants on the hood that are noticableas they are jsut now starting to rust. So far I believe that I am going to wash w/ dawn, clay, repeat wash w/ dawn...after that I have no idea. I want to bring this car up to autopia standards(car is dark green btw). Thought about using nxt as my local oreilly's has bottles stacked all over the place. But what other products should I use? I want a deep gloss on the paint, and a clean interior, w/ soft supple leather. Engine looks fairly clean but would like to bring that up as well. Thanks for the input guys!
