C-6 WET red corvette

This client came about from a toy's 4 tots corvette car show I sponsered back in Dec.
Wheels and tires were cleaned with Optimum car wash and the 16' deep reach brush.
Tires were given Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Gel
My pw went to the grave yesterday. So out came the ONR, using a spray bottle mixture. To wet the paint, then a gallon mix with a mitt to wash the car. Dried with the guzzler.
I then took out my new EDGE green pad, and my new PB PwS. So I started to polish with this combo. It took a panel or two to get the hang of the edge.
Once I was done, I didn't want to use a new pad so I just turned it over to the new side.( I like this idea).
Out came the XMT glaze w/ carnauba and spread it one at speed 4. I found that if I leave it on, while I finish the whole car. Then remove it, it gives more of a wow look.

Pinnacle Souveran paste then applied a panel at a time and removed.
Interior
Door panels and dash was wiped with DP Interior Surface Protectant. Leather seats were treated with brand X product.
Exterior Trim
Was treated with PB trim restorer.

Thanks
See I told you. Next time you use it, leave it on. Till you finish the whole vehicle, then take it off. Once it is all off, then put on your final product like souveran. Then stand back and put on some shades
