Chemical Guys full detail!

So today I used some new products to create the best shine my car has ever had. First I washed the car with meguiars ultimate wash and my foam cannon and then I clayed the car with the Clay Block. Then I used my new Torq DA Polisher with Chemical Guys V36 on an orange HexLogic foam pad followed by V38 on a white HexLogic foam pad. After the paint was corrected I used a new glaze called "wet mirror shine". Then I followed that with Butter Wet Wax. This was no small detail. Took about 5 hours. Cleaned the wheels with Diablo wheel/tire cleaner and dressed the tires with Jay Leno's Garage new tire shine. Car looks awesome! Totally worth the time!

Perfect ! You my friend picked basically the best regiment for a car in your condition. Great results! .. Check mine out in my thread using pretty much the same products

Nice job! I have two milk crates full of Mequiars products but once they are gone, I am going to try using Chemical Guys products. I can't imagine it being a night and day difference but I am not afraid to mix it up a little.
