but to get one, you gotta pm the wanabe-


(what products did you use?)

I used;
starting from initial detail,
hose water
Spray down entire exterior, paying most attention to rims, tires, conv. top, and wheel walls; using Blue Coral wash and wax concentratewith a soft car wash brush.
Wash each panel individually and spraying down the brush and panel after each use of brush.
Keeping entire exterior wet (no shade where im at)
and use brush on tires and rims after exterior is washed. (spray down them also)

After washing and rinsing,
I drive my car into our garage to dry off using a California Blade.
Afterwards I use a micro fiber towel to go over remaining water drops, door jams, trunk jam, hood jam and conv. top.
Then I use a california duster. After that i wax (when necissary) with black magic liquid wax,
and remove using a very soft micro fiber beach towel.
(believe me, works a hell of alot better then using small cotton towels)
Next step is applying and removing Black Magic Spray Detailer:
applying under hood, trunk, and inside the doors (where painted).
Next step is to use Armor All Auto Glass Cleaner to get remaining water spots off windows, headlights, tailights, mirrors, honda badge, and S2000 badge.
Then using Rain-x, apply to headlights, windows, mirrors, and tailights.
I would then move on to using Blue Magic Top Conditioner to take care of my top.
On to rims and tires, I simply use a normal towel to remove remaining brake dust on the rims and tires, afterwards I use Black Magic Tire Shine
And final most important product used: A heafty amount of elbo grease

I'm very fond of Black Magic cleaners and what not. Because I detailed for a limousine company that only purchased Black Magic supplies...
I am however growing tired of most products, but I hold my ground with their spray detailer! Excellent product!

I'm also going to look into claying and polishing
(using ona them electric buffers).
I also believe there is more to the exterior I can do, I pretty much have interior marked downz. As had having to clean the interior for a customer who pays $300+ to get a ride to where they want to go.

Hope I can find the right products or ones that work the best!
