Detail by mshu7: My '05 Mazda3

Hey all, I've been working on winterizing my '05 Mazda3 for the past couple weeks. The only before picture I have is of one of the wheels. The OEM pads dust a lot so I thought it'd be good to see before/after shots. Also, I did a half/half shot of the drivers seat. One half is before and one half is after an application of Meg's Detailer Line Leather Cleaner & Conditioner (thanks to Justin for getting me hooked on this great product!!!).

You'll notice that some pictures are in sun and some are not. I took pictures (3 different times) over a 2-day period so that's why there is a difference.

Process:
-Wash w/NXT
-Clay w/Meg's Clay & DP 4-in-1 as lube
-Polish with PB SSR1 & white LC pad
-Klasse AIO
-Klasse SG x2
-PB Natty's Blue x2
-Meg's High Endurance on tires
-PB Wheel Sealant
-Meg's NXT Glass Cleaner
-Meg's Quick Interior Detailer
-Meg's Detailer Line Leather Cleaner & Conditioner
-ClearKote Quik Shine for final wipe-down

Wheel Before:


Wheel After:

Great job...

You take excellent car photos... I can never seem to get the right shots, but I'll use yours for my inspiration next time..... (And I'll drive to a nice open area like you have)

Good work!

Looks great. I can't believe the difference on the seats. I also liked the cloud reflection shots. Too Cool.

Great job! Very nice pics. Love the 2 pics with the sun setting low, and the nice glow you get on the car. Nice reflection shots and the wheels/tires look sharp.

mshu7, what a outstanding job you done. Very nice cam shots too. Great review on products. Its hard to say which pic I liked the best. Maybe the hood/ headlight shot.
Awesome detail!
