Detailed: 2009 Jaguar XK

This is an awesome vehicle that I have been maintaining for over a year now. This was not a correction detail but an enhancing exterior protection detail followed by a full interior detail.....the top stays down all of the time!

Wash Cycle:
Meguiar's Gold Class Wash...rinse.
No claying was needed.

Paint Cleansing Phase:
Meguiar's D-151 via G110 using LC White 5.5" Polishing Pad

This was to remove any previous wax/sealant and any stray swirls. We live in a rough enviroment here in the mountains.

No wipedown as issued since I wanted the protectants in D-151 to stay on the paint.

Paint Protection:
Collinite's #476s by hand and Meguiar's hand pad. The door jambs received the same treatment.

The trim and glass were protected by Optimum's Opti-Seal.

The top was cleaned/protected by 303's system.

Wheel Cleaning and Protection:
Cleaned with Meguiar's Wheel Brightener and protected Collinite's 476s

Tire Protection:
Meguiar's Endurance Tire Gel

Interior:
Leather cleaned with Meguiar's APC 20:1 and protected with Pinnacle's leather conditioner. All other surfaces were cleaned/treated with Meguiar's Interior Quick Detailer. Carpets and mats were deep cleaned with Folex and steam. Glass was cleaned with Meguiar's Detailer Line Glass Cleaner.

Time accumulated:
6 hours

Afters only. I clean it on a weekly basis.

Very nice!

BTW, do you have any pics or videos of water beading on windows that have Opti-Seal on them?

Kind of in the middle.

Easy to correct but a durable finish. Not a lot of orange peel either. The interior is easy to clean too.
