Well, a few weeks ago I went out to wash my truck and noticed I had a fair amount of fresh tar on it. So I decided I should probably get that off.....next thing you know I spent all day on it! Guess that's how it goes sometimes. Anyway, here was my process and some after pics. No befores....like I said, I just went out to wash it!
Wash with GC and microfiber mitt
Dryed with The Absorber
Bad tar areas with Meguiar's Body Solvent
Clay with blue mild and last touch for lube
#83 via rotary @ 1200 with cutting pad 7006
#80 via DA @ speed 5 with polishing pad 8006
#7 via DA @ speed 3 with finishing pad 9006
#21 via DA @ speed 3 with finishing pad 9006
Wheels with Wheel Brightner
Chrome got Cleaner Wax
Exhaust with Mag and Aluminum Polish..mmmm cinnamon
Glass was NXT
Tires with #40
All lights got ScratchX
Working shots:
This was right after I finished this side with #7. No LSP yet.
This is the closest I could get to a direct sun shot. Don't mind the drip running right through the middle of it
This truck holds water in every little crevice just waiting to run out when I fire up the polisher!
And a shot with the Halogen checking my results:
And finally some finished shots right after the sun went down. Not the best for detailing forums but I like "golden hour" car shots anyway!
