Fuwaad - Silver Toyota

[D.O.Double G]

Hi guys,

Detailed a Silver Toyota Corolla on Sunday Morning.I had the car at home so i got up early and Started at about 6 and finished at 14:30 .Silver doesnt really show how well a car can look and How much Gloss and Dept can be achieved on paintwork, especially for the amount of time spent on it.
Atleast Toyota paint is soft. Not that hard to remove swirls and scratches.
The car wasnt that dirty when i got it.Im sure it got washed the saturday or so. But no shortcuts were taken so i had to rewash the car.

Ok, the process that i followed was as follows:

1. Wheels were first treated with Sonax Extreme wheel cleaner. Rinsed with water and continued with a solution of
Meguiars Deep crystal wash and water.
2. Car washed with Meguiars Nxt Shampoo (2 Bucket wash system to reduce swirling).Used Meguiars Last touch detailer as a
drying agent.
3. Clayed with Chemical Guys Medium Clay Bar and Meguiars Last Touch as Lubricant.
4. Washed with Chemical Guys Citrus Wash and Gloss shampoo and again Used Meguiars Last Touch as drying aid. Created a good gloss.i love this shampoo.Dilution ratios are brilliant and Foaming abilities are pretty awesome.

5. Swirls and scratches treated as follows:
5.2. Shield orbital and laser buff... Results were noticed but it took too long and so i bumped up to Chemical guys
Diamond Cut Compound. Difficult areas were treated with a Meg's Gold class microfibre applicator and some Meguiars M105 that i got from Siya a few weeks ago. This is a brilliant product and i might be using this as my compounding choice.
6.Lights Treated with Meguiars Plast X.

7. Waxed with NXT Tech wax - 2 Hours Curing time.
8. Topped off with Chemical guys 3 X Carnuaba paste Wax. (Best of both worlds). Compliments of Naushad From Chemical guys.
I actually find this product to be quite well.

9. Wheels Waxed with Smartwax Rim Wax and Rubber treated with Endurance Tyre Gel.
10. Trim Treated with Gold Class Trim Detailer.
11.Windows Treated with Chemical Guys Window Cleaner.
12. Finally Finished with Last touch again.
