'09 Red Scion xB

[wht4drfa5]

Hello all. A couple weeks ago I removed some swirls from my friend's Ford F-350 for him. He liked what I had done so he called me back to do his scion. The condition of the scion was good. Just had slight swirls in the clear. Just like before he had already had the car washed and stored it over night in a shop ready for me to buff the next morning. I only took after pics but i wanted to share a couple with you guys.

Process was:
Wipe down using Meguiar's QD
Clayed a few areas that needed it
Meguiar's UC w/ LC orange pad
NXT paste wax

Let me know what you think.














He took awhile to get back to the shop so here's a couple of fun pics:

It looks good, those are fun looking vehicles.

Although it's a small vehicle it looks like a bit of surface area to cover. At least the panels are nice and flat. It's also a low vehicle with a large roof that's easily visible. I bet the roof took a bit of work. How did you manage to do the roof without marking up the side panels?

Yeah I was pleased with my results.

I did the roof by hand and by standing on a ladder. Its vinyl wrapped so i wanted to take it easy on it. I used NXT but after I had finished I remembered someone using Plastic-X on their stickers and it working, so I have something new to try next time I clean this car. After finishing the Scion I did the Plastic-X on his golf cart that is also wrapped and it actually cleaned it up really nice. I followed w/ NXT paste as well. I should have posted pics of that as well.

Yeah it is fancy. The seats and dash have been wrapped w/ new fabric too. It's very nicely done.

Nice , hopefully you didn't have to spend too long up there. It's hard on the feet when you're not moving.
