Friday's detail.... KnightRyderV's 2000 Black Accord *Lots of reflection shots*
I didn't get too many pictures of the before, and the few I did was after the claying process - you can still see the lubrication in the pictures -- but you can also get an idea of the paint condition before. It was . I didn't know what I was up against until after the wash! Anyways, I got some really good reflection shots, so onto the pics

Time: 5.5-6 hours

Process:
Wash
Swissvax fine grade clay & ONR lube
PC UDM
Optimum Compound/Opt Polish 50/50 on a orange pad @ speed 6
Optimum Polish on white pad @ speed 6
Danase DWG on black pad @ speed 4
FS UPP on red pad @ Speed 3
Duragloss Spray wax
Tuf Shine on tires - I love the zero residue!



After 50/50 OC/OP pass

After OP pass


Completed pix





Look its my car

If he is, I think Johnny may be a better option for you Nuck, hehe. I think he charges less than I do.

For correction I like to work with speed 6, and just alter the pressure I apply and/or movement speed as needed

Looking good Johnny!

Props and I like the idea of the 50/50.

Looks like Vimal is going to be all set for The Presidio Meet.

Johnny...you going to cruise out?
