Post-Detail Photos: Daytime (No 56k)

Finally got around to finalizing the detail job I started a while ago. I'm not going to list out the process again (it was a long one) but if you're curious, I'll post it up. Pics were taken at an industrial equiment training ground by my house. Took pics here a while ago too...

Took me a long time. I'd say it was about 10 hours total when all was said and done. But, I spread it out over a few days and weekends because I have very little free time. This was my process

Week #1:
Zaino Wash
Zaino Claybar (w/ Poorboys Spray&Wipe)
Zaino Wash
Poorboys SSR2.5 (spot treat)
Poorboys SSR1 (full coverage)
P21S Paintwork Cleanser
Menzerna Finishing Touch Glaze
Poorboys Wheel Sealant

Week #2:
Poorboys EX-P Sealant (on back half of car)
Poorboys Natty's Paste (on back half of car)
Wenol Wheel Polish

Week #3:
Poorboys EX-P Sealant (on entire car)
Poorboys Natty's Paste (on entire car twice)
Wenol Wheel Polish
Poorboys Wheel Sealant

Pictures look amazing , I'm really glad the detail came out so well! Thats a lot of depth and gloss for a lighter colored vehicle. Most people can't get that deep look on that color, great work. If you need anything in the future don't hesitate to contact me, it was a pleasure working with you.

Any lower and, in my eyes, its not aggressive its goofy. But when I'm rolling, trust me, that rear wheel is tucked quite a bit.
