This is my first detailing with all of my new equipment. This car is my spare car that has never been stored inside for its 139K miles and untill today has not been washed in 3 years (and when it was it went through gas station washed) There was hundred of micro-scratches, and this turned out great. Thanks to Detailers Domain, and 1Z product! This is my first trial - half trunk (washed, clayed, polished, and waxed) This is just after the top of the trunk All DONE!!
Then i did the rest of the car. (washed 3 times, Clayed 2 times, Polished with 1z EXTRA Paint cleaner, Polish Paint, and Glanz Waz, and Uber pads) Started VERY DIRTY! TONS of Swirl marks Wshed 3 times and this is after the first half of the roof All DONE after 3 Step POLISH This is what i used along with Porter cable And this is Friday's Work. MY STI!
Nice work man, was that spot on the rear driver side wheel too tough to get off? Love the STi, my buddy has an all black one
Great work man!!! Doesn't look bad for 136k!! A word of advice though ... if you know your car is extremely dirty, you might be better off doing a Valugard Decontamination before using the claybar. Just by looking a the claybar pic, you probably introduced more scratches while using the claybar. Not that it really matters now 'cause you polished the vehicle and it turned out great, but keep it in mind next time you detailing a filthy vehicle.
Yeah i know. I dont have the stuff for the tires and undercarrage yet (ordered from detailers domain and should arrive tuesday) along with a bunch more things) But the reason i did this was to show, and see for myself, that clay bar and 3 part polishing can do. I still dont car about this car and will probably not do this again on the NEON. I have a VW bug converitable and my STI to take care of. But still cool to see what these products can do.
