We hope everyone's car look so great in the WINTER! Roll up your sleeves before the weather gets really bad, it will protect your car for awhile!

2009 Chevy Camaro

This car is only about 1.5 months old. The dealership did a very hacked job on it and filled EVERYTHING. It looked nice, but once we stripped everything, it was halogram EVERYWHERE. Although it's new, it has some very sever RDS and minor swirl marks. The entire process took about 20 hours or so...

Sorry, it was very cloudy so no good pictures of "before"at outdoor that we can share with everyone... [Frown] , but u can still the swirl marks in some of the pictures.

We start with the wheels and tires using P21 Wheel Cleaner and let it soak a bit
-

Off with a hand brush to get the spokes
-

Then with ACE PowerStick to get to the inside of the wheels
-

- - -

Pressure wash off everything
-

Including the wheel wells
-

Then we start with the body to get the 'big dirt' off the car...
-

Hit the tires again as we rinse the body
-

Then off to our Camspray Foamer
-

-

You can never clean the wheels/tires enough!

Then off to two buckets hand wash with fresh MF
-

Still trying to perfect close up shots... But yeah, lot of swirls... Here are bunch of 50/50

Then glide the water off of the car
-

Rinse down the wheels of course
-

Look at this! Brand new car! This is from just the hood too!

Air dry all the gaps and surfaces as much as we can
-

After air dry, we use Waffle MF to blot dry
-

Look closely, lot of RDS! We then took a paint meter to check the thickness and it was about ~145-185 micron all around. Plenty of paints on this car for correction!

Sorry, we didn't have one on hand. Perhaps in the future. We also have learned that Ford ethusiasm love to get their hands on their car, so we are also here to join your detailing projects. [Wink]
