    Whats up ladies and gents, Well I couldn't stand to see my sisters daily driver dirty anymore (she hasn't washed it in a year) The last time I detailed it was June of 2012. We both have conflicting schedules plus shes super busy (works in medical industry) soo I had a couple limited hours to work on it so here is what I came up with.

    Surprisingly the paint was in very good shape considering the last time the paint was touched was a year ago. I was limited on time so a one stepper made sense. I did a couple of test spots and FG400 seemed to work great. I probably got 85-90% correction..FG400 continues to impress me.

    Anyway here it is.

    -Wheels cleaned with Sonax/wheel woolies
    -Tires/wells washed with 1Z W99 (10:1) via kwazar pro
    -Engine bay APC'd w/ W99 (10.1) via kwazar pro
    -foamed/washed w/ mix of Dawn/Megs hyper/w99 to strip via gilmour gun
    -deconed w/ tarminator & Auto Finesse iron out
    -Cleaned jams via/ Auto finesse citrus
    -Clayed (uber bar)
    -Menzerna FG400 via Rupes/green uber pad & Griots 3"
    -Sealed w/ Sonax net shield
    -Tires dressed w/Adams super vrt
    -wheel wells Adams undercarrige
    -Engine bay 303 coated
    -Glass Megs GC sealed w/rain-x

    Looks good. I also use W99 diluted for cleaning the wheels and tires, but I use it at 5:1 ratio because of the nasty german-graphite infused brake pad dust I have to clean.

    Nice work! That engine bay is extremely tidy, like the way Acura set it up. Looks super easy to clean.

    Thanks.

    Thanks, w99 is a bad ass APC.

    Thanks.

    Thanks, AF works best imo compared to iron cut or wolfs.

    Thanks it's my first time using net shield we will see how it holds up.

    Yep it is easy to clean.
