So I finally did a full detail, and clensed the paint and waxed her. also installed pretty much everything I'm going to. Tell me what you think.

Thanks! I know, I gotta pick up a California duster, so I can at least dust the pollen off for the first couple days.

it's not hard to do a decent detail job. just do some research first then take your time. like picking up a girl on a friday night.

Actually starting to detail some cars on the side for some extra money. Student Loans suck.

Thanks for all the compliments!

Really Nice! what did you use to "cleanse the paint"

I clay barred the entire car, which removed all of the larger imbedded particles, like bugs, and larger dirt specs. Then I used a 3M Glaze to remove some of the larger swirls and scratches. After that I used Sonax's NTS7 Paste Wax. It’s a mild abrasive that removes the finer swirls and also really creates a clean, smooth surface, and brightens the paint. Its got Carnauba in it, but I like to follow it with an extra coat of pure Carnauba Wax. I use Pinncale's Carnauba, I've found it looks the best, is the easiest to apply, and creates the best barrier. I only do it twice a year, after that I just renew the coat of Carnauba, and occasionally touch up trouble spots.
