My car was due for a good detailing so I started Friday night. I have no 'during' pictures, but the process I used was as follows:

-Wash with concentrated dawn dish soap to strip old products
-clay with Meguairs smooth surface kit
-Spot correction by hand with Meguiars Ultimate Compound and Scratch X via orange and white foam pads. (a word on correction by hand - IT SUCKS. I started out all gun-ho with this "how hard can it be!?" attitude, and after sweating my butt off on a 1 by 1 foot test spot on the hood I decided to change plans and just correct a couple of specific spots that especially bothered me. I was much more successful with that plan.)
-Another wash with dawn
-Poorboys World White Diamond glaze via red CCS pad
-Chemical Guys Jetseal 109 - 2 coats - via red pad
-Pinnacle Signature Series II carnuba wax - 1 coat - via red pad

This was my first time using jetseal + Sig series II as an LSP, and it definitely gives a wetter, glossier finish than the poorboys EX-P and Nattys Blue I was using before.


Anyhow, on to today, I left home between thunderstorms with a plan to just drive to a park up the road and take some pictures, and I ended up running into (not literally, thank God) a Ferrari F360, and long story short 20 minutes of high speed back roads driving later I figured I should stop stalking the Ferrari and just drove around aimlessly because I wasn't really familiar with the area I ended up in. As luck would have it, I found some really cool spots to take some pictures.

Comments and criticisms always welcome!
