Jay's (fretburnr) E30 stopped by again...

lecchilo · 04-07-2007, 03:16 PM

I detailed Jay's car the 1st time last year in November... topped with NXT back then and Jay added a few more layers throughout the winter... car held up pretty well but there were minor swirls and some salt deposits everywhere, along with minor oxidation all over...

Process:
Washed with Meg's Gold Class
Clay hood, fenders and roof (car was very clean since I clayed the whole car in November)
Polish with Meg's #83 with Orange LC pad @ 1200-1500
Polish with Meg's #82 with White LC pad @ 1200-1500
Sealed with Meg's #21 Synthetic Sealant

Took approximately 6.5 Hrs

I finished the whole car in the evening and it was dark out, so no nice whole car photos... I did manage to get the 2 hood shots in the sun, just to show how all the swirls went away...
The last pic shows part of the hood done and oxidation gone, compared to the rest

Before pics:

After:

Hopefully Jay will snap some full car shots soon and post them up, because I'd really like to see it in the sun.

Wow Jay, your car looks great when it's clean.

It looks like a beater when it's dirty but great when it's clean.
