Let me start this thread off by saying this: THIS IS THE WORST CAMERA I HAVE EVER USED. I lost my regular one (found it 2 days later), and none of the pictures were altered after they were taken. The hues are completely off, the only ones that finally worked properly were the garage shots. The rest are just kinda to blue or too red, but the reflections still look alright. They camera would mess up with the tiniest shake and I forgot a tripod, so I apologize for the quality.

Now onto the detail. I had a couple days to work on this, as the owner was on vacation and I had a big garage to work in and a drain outside :applause2: I loved this car, I kept admiring the lines as I was buffing off the wax or polish. Silver/Black is one sexy *** combo. However, I didn't mean I like the rims black(And of course the **** camera didn't capture it)! They were extremely black, because the owner had the windshield scratched at a car wash and hasn't been to one since :thud: The car only had 2900 miles on it.

First things first, rims and tires. What a PITA, this was baked on, but Meg's Wheel Brightener did a good job of taking it all off. Again, this camera sucked monkey *****. I just couldn't figure it out. The wheels were MUCH blacker than the pictures show, it was really brightening up everything for some reason. When I took pictures of the black interior it made it gray :shrug: No durings, I didn't want the WB to sit on the rims.




50/50:



After, no PB Wheel Sealant yet.


PB Sealant applied 3 times, no dressing yet:






Ok, now time to start washing. Like I said, this hadn't seen the car wash in a long time, although it is garaged so it was dirty, just not extremely dirty. The car only had 2900 miles on it.

Close up of the dirt:


Unacceptable:




After wash and clay:



This is why I use the 2BM :thud:


Quick interior, not much to do. The car was only 2900 miles old, just cleaned up the jambs, and used a crapload of leather products since that seemed to be the only material inside the car besides carpet.








Now, onto the paint. It was IMPOSSIBLE to capture any swirls. I could only see them in the sun, the worst part was the bumper right under the trunk and even then I couldn't get them. Too much silver and metallic in the paint. They were there, and there was room for improvement. A couple rids too, I used Powergloss to get a couple of them off.

RID:


Gone:






1st Coat of RBOE applied, waited about an hour:


Afters, some are after the 1st coat, some are after the 2nd:



Looking good:





Only sun I could get:


Tails corrected too:
