Recent used G35 purchase and did a detailing job

Just want to share some photos of my recent detailing. This is my recently purchased 06 g35x and is being used as a DD. Fairly positive that it have never been waxed before and neglected by the previous owner until i bought it used this year. A ton of scratch marks generated by improper car washes and possibly dirty winter snow brush throughout the past 5-6 years. I have no doubts that the previous owner used a dirty brush at gas station to clean the car especially the tail gate during winter.

Brief procedures:
1) Preparation: Car wash soap + APC Cleaner
2) Swirl removing: Varies depending on surface, Poorboy SSR 2 and SSR 2.5 and Mastercut on bumper and many sky facing and boot lit surfaces. Using a Porter Cable 7424XP Dual action DA polisher with lake country pads.
3) Wolf's Chemcial WP-0NT Nano sealant
4) Carnauba Wax
5) Final touches: Detailer's Pride Wheel Glaze , Rain Xed all windshields, etc.


Sorry, i only took one "before" picture showing the horrible paint condition but it should give you an idea. This wasn't the worst area but it was easiest to catch on my cell phone. Never thought of showing anyone.
