As clean as I can get it

Spent 3 days detailing the wife's car. Makes me wish I went with LBB. Such an awesome color when it's clean. Took 3 days but it's so worth it. Mine will be tackled in the next few weeks but should only require a 1 step correction.

Steps taken:
Decon wash
Iron Remover
Clay bar
2 step paint correction
Paint chip fill
Ceramic Coat

Products used:
Chemical Guys Clean Slate
CarPro Iron X
NanoSkin Synthetic Clay bar
NanoSkin Glide
3M Precision masking tape
3M Trizact 5000 grit sandpaper
Griot's Garage G8 Polisher
Griot's Garage G9 Polisher
Meguiars Microfiber cutting pads in 3 and 5 inch
Jescar Correcting Compound
Rupes White Foam polishing pad in 3 and 5 inch
Sonax Perfect finish
Dr ColorChip paint chip correction kit
CarPro Eraser
Gtechnic Crystal Serum Light
Gtechnic EXOv4
Metric ton of microfiber towels...


Washed, Ironed, Clayed, and masked



Compounding and polishing



Prepping for coating



Finished

Too bad you have to drive it. Of course, that gives you the opportunity to spend all this time again. Labor of love for sure.
