Hey guys this is my first full paint correction, and I decided to do it to my own 06 AW STI! After several month's of reading and alot of money into detailing products, I finally got all my stuff and found time to detail my car. I don't have many before's or after's either.. sorry guys! Process: CG Citrus wash + gloss two bucket method CG maxi suds clayed with sonus green clay bar ONR as clay lube M105 with megs burgundy pad m205 megs finishing pad Opti seal dodo juice pre wax cleanser Lusso oro wax x3 Tires dressed with Gloss it signature gloss wheels cleaned with p21s wheel gel/ tires APC 4 to 1 before after m105/m205 50/50 after one hit of m105 corrected panel lusso oro applied via red CCS applicator pad SOME AFTERS Thanks for looking!
hey there, thanks for posting your pics, would love to have seen a completed image of the full car. you did some serious detail work on this well done, hope you are enjoying it
Was the clear on the car "sticky" at all?? did you have any problems with the compound flashing onto the clear, or almost hardening up in small spots for no reason?? Your correction looks great! How do you like those no name towels from Phil, I'm assuming that is what the green towel is in your wax pic.
What the hell causes that?? I thought I was doing something wrong, I am very glad to see that someone else had the same problem..I just used QD stregth ONR to get it off..
Yah I did notice the m105 flashing really bad when I was doing the hood. Oddly enough that was the only time it was really flashing and drying up on me :shead:. But the rest of the car it seemed pretty smooth, maybe I loaded to much product into my pad. But thanks for the compliment guys! I don't know how some of you do a full write up with 50+ pics :yikes:. I hate pausing and having to reach for my camera lol. But my next detail is going to be a JBP STI and I will try to do a full write up this time with pics to compliment it :righton:
Oh and the Green towels from DD is excellent! Great products and great people to deal with, I just want them to bring back the detail sponges, those things were awesome
I've never had any issues with Menzerna polishes on my 03 WRX! Great looking STi, wanna give me your tranny? I think my 3rd and 4th are gonna grenade from all the torque here soon
thanks guys! My only complaint is polishing around the door handles. Is it best to use PFW around this area? The orange pad is to hard, and the white pad doesn't get enough cut
