For those arctic fans: Exterior detail...

Booboo12 · 06-28-2008, 09:33 PM

My baby turned one year old, so I gave her a good cleaning and exterior detail over the past 2 days...
Washed with CG Citrus wash and gloss (about 6oz to help strip off all old sealant)
303 Aerospace protectant on the wheels.

(for those Zaino fans - this one's for you)
Clayed (Z18) (caused a little marring, but that was taken care of by the next step)
ZAIO followed by a Z6 wipedown
Z5 w\ ZFX followed by a Z6 wipedown
another Z5 w\ ZFX followed by a Z6 wipedown
Z2 followed by a Z6 wipedown
another Z2 followed by a Z6 wipedown
ZCS followed by a Z6 wipedown
Z8

For all those real detailers out there who do this for a living, my hats off to you.

i thought by arctic you meant that you were having an arctic detailer challenge, like you would remove swirl marks in a blizzard or something

then i remembered the color

Except for the tint and sticker in the windshield, looks just like mine. OK, yours is in better shape since I haven't detailed in a while
