I created whiplash!

I finally got the chance to do the detail I was planning on my Camaro. I decided to go with the Blackfire Wet Diamond package.

Here is what I did:

Wash with Dawn and APC to strip the wax.
Clay, using the Nanoscrub sponge. The sponge is so easy to use.
Blackfire Gloss Enhancing Polish
Wipe down with IPA
Blackfire All Finish Paint Protection Sealant
Blackfire Wet Diamond Polymer Spray

Here is the result

Since I used the Blackfire Wet Diamond Kit, I will be doing a review on the kit in the next day or so.

I also have to say thanks to two people who really pointed me in the right direction with my detailing questions.

Matt, thanks for taking the time to answer my questions.

Roshan, thanks for the great videos. I learned so much from them.

If you ever make it to northern CA, I live in wine country. I owe you two a day of wine tasting.

make one change you will like - add crystal seal after the wet diamond..really adds to the gloss...the poly spray is so so in my experience, I like Wolfgang spritz sealant better - it lasts longer and gives a better finish...

This is wet diamond and then crystal seal on your color...and no final buffing...
