Wifey's car corrected for the year/season

Wifey's car was fully corrected 1.5 years ago. Over the course of that time, swirls and marring have slowly crept back in. On top of that, we had to get the rear driver panel repainted due to an accident, so the swirls from the body shop have been there since late last summer.

I finally had time to do a 2nd correction on her.

Washed with CG Melon
Dried and clayed (CG clay pad) with CG V7
Flex, Menz Power Finish with White LC CCS pad (orange on rear driver panel only)
Flex, CG Blacklight with Gray LC CCS pad
PC, CG JetSeal
Total time invested during this detail session: 4.5 hours.

Wifey was very pleased…she's been nudging me all year to get her all cleaned up for her. Wasn't mother's day just over? :xyxthumbs:

Pics are unedited, combo of iPhone and Nikon D60.

Enjoy.

p.s. you mustang muscle boys…try to look PAST the fact that it's a Prius V (wifey loves her car) and appreciate the DETAILING!!!

Looks great Burton. I'm trying to work in some time to get my wife's ride up to par again. Stupid Afghanistan.

Thanks Steve.

Yeah, the wifey really loved it. She always tells me how her mom-friends always comment her on her car, and how they ask their husbands to clean their cars like I do. LOL. They get jealous. haha.
