Hi guys. So just got a brand new Acura rdx charcoal gray today. Well my GF did at least and she gave me the pleasure of giving it its first bath. My plan of attack is....
1-wash with CG citrus wash clear (supposed to strip off all dressings safely for doing corrections)
2-clay using a new CG wash/clay mitt
3- evaluate paint for imperfections.
4- if imperfections correct using m101 and megs mf pad system on da.
5- polish using m205 with black polishing pad (or mf finishing pad) not sure which to use.
6- use ULW with black finishing pad
7- of course all the dressings on tires and plastics
this is my first major detail and want it to go smoothly. ANY advice is appreciated. I still feel I'm pretty new to this even though I've been on this forum for over a year and have only really practiced on my car. Once again any advice is welcomed. Please feel free to tweak it however and add products or take them out. Some of the products I have......

and I use a 3d product final touch for clay lube but with the mitt I'm going to use CG mr pink for soap cuz it came with the mitt when I bought it.
Ill be using a Meg's g110 v1 with either mf pads or w8207b 7" or 4" and w9207b 7" or 4". I also have LC orange, yellow, or white I believe 5" (they fit the w67da backing plate). I also have about 6 each of the buffing pads for Meg's. I have about 50 supreme shine towels and mf wash mitt and mf waffle weave for drying. I have numerous hand applicators also if need be. Separate mf towels for tires and an applicator swipe for tire gel.
I have access to compressor for cleaning mf pads and also a brush and towels for cleaning on the fly. Hopefully this gives you an idea of what I have to work with and help me tweak it to suit my needs. Like I said I'm still pretty new to this and open to any ideas on processes and advice. Also if I should add some products to my list let me know please. I'm not a pro and don't plan on opening a business just want my car looking the best I can make it. Thanks in advance guys. If it wasn't for this site I'd still be using dawn with a dirty sponge that I found under my toolbox and a house towel to dry the car off it it wasn't already dried by the sun itself lol.
