Detailed a local members 2011 yesterday morning and it came out looking pretty nice.

Nothign really fancy here as it was still a pretty new car and the owner wanted it detailed and sealed up before the daily driver duty took it's toll on the car. It was about a 4.5 hour job.

The car received the following treatment:

Full wash (including door jambs, wheels, tires and wheel wells) with CG's Wash n Gloss
Claybar with Claymagic
Single Stage Polish with Meguiars D151 on Green Pad applied with FLEX DA on speed 5
CG Full detail spray wipedown to remove all dusting
Buttery Wet Wax applied on Blue Pad with FLEX DA on speed 3
CG Detail spray wipedown to remove wax and improve gloss
Exhaust tips polished with Mothers
Trim, tires and wheel wells dressed with CG Bare Bones

Interior received full vacuum and wipedown

Only light swirls in the paint. The goal wasn't total correction, but D151 removed about 50% of the swirls.

If you have any questions about detailing, feel free to ask or PM me.

Weather looks like it'll be perfect all week...drive the hell out of it

hey Shawn, other than the much maligned California Car Duster, is there any other method of giving it a quick dusting or is a full wash the only way to go?

If the car has only been sitting then it can be safe to wipe off light dust with a quick detailer and a microfiber, but after the car is driven the safest bet is to just give it a quick wash. Like I said, now that it's coated with that sealant and an extra layer of wax it should take no time at all to wash it...everything will just slide right off.
