Talking Time to show off mine

Hey all

Finally had a free weekend that didnt involve helping out friends or SNOW like we had two weeks ago (which immediately changed to 70 degree weather a few days later). SO I busted out the detailing cart and got to work.
It still has some micro-marring to deal with, but for the first detail of the car since I got it, and my first of the season, I'm pretty pleased.

Process:

Washed with Meg's Gold Class
Clayed with Megs White clay kit.
Polished with Poorboy's SSR 2.5 on a Wolfgang Orange pad by PC
Polished with Poorboy's SSR 1 on a Wolfgang White pad by PC
Followed up with Klasse AIO and then two coats of Klasse SG by hand.

Clayed the rims and polished those and the exhaust with Megs NXT All Metal Polish, dressed the tires and trim with a product called Black Again..seems to work very well so far.

Here's a few pics taken with a shitty 2MP camera (I really need to get one of my own)...

Thanks for the comments everyone. I'll post some more pics tonight..the camera was a cheap one I borrowed from my friend, so some of the shine shots blinded the camera causing "burn" spots on the photo. I'm still going through them and removing those (cheating in Photoshop).

My rims/wheels are nothing special and have some minor curb rash and rub from when I got it..I plan on getting some others soon but wanted to help them out as much as I could.

Oregon is rainy on the other side of the mountains..I'm in Central Oregon..known as the High Desert but we arent all sand and cacti
