    The car is garage and weekly wash. In this case I use onr in quick detailer dilution assist by a thick microfiber towel to wipe down the paint.

    After quick detailer wipe I claybar the car by using an fine grade claybar and onr in quick detailer dilution. After each ½ panel I inspect the clay and mold it to a clean surface.

    The next step was prep for correction by tape chrome trims , rubber trims and badges.

    Once the car was prepared for correction I inspect the car with halogen light to get familiar with what type of defects I have to deal with . initial condition of the vehicle:
    Pass door

    Driver door:

    Pass door was chosen for test spot. After I try multiple pad , polish combination the winner was 1 step with mezerna SIP ( super intensive polish) on LC light green cutting pad with flex da. The correction was done in speed 6 and after that few more passes with speed 5 and light /no pressure.
    The test spot was wipe down with ipa ( 50/50 alchool and water) and inspected under halogen lights:

    Most of the correction was done with main light off and assist by halogen light.

    A close up after correction:

    The wheels were clean just light dust , a microfiber towel and optimum car wax took care of that. On the tires I use meguiar`s m40 and a soft sponge to apply it.
    The front of the car was clear bra , after wash was protected with rejeX apply with a foam applicator pad.
    The whole paint was protected with 2 coats of duragloss 105 .
    Enjoy the after shots , thank you for made it all the way here:
