woke up this morning and decided my wife's car needed some spiffying up

wash wax based shampoo
meduim duty clay bar

one pass with true cut polish, aggressive foam pad

one pass with some P21s paste wax (I signed up for their product testing and this is some of the stuff they sent), semi-aggressive foam pad

one pass with polymer paint sealant, soft foam pad... all pads go with cyclo dual head

Enjoy

Nice shine and job. Nice detail trailer in the background too. Can you post the pics, had a little problem bringing the pics up. Reload, reload, and then it came up.

Very nice. I like the trailer too. Lets get some pics of the inside!

Nice looking Corolla! The silver has a real nice look to it.

I too tried using Picasa as a photo host and it didn't work on public forums for some reason....

One question though- why did you put a sealant on after the wax????

Yes, I'm wonder the same thing. The only one I can think of is OS. Do we have another sealant that we can do that with?

sealant comes before wax , you likely removed your efforts with P21S. Even with OS as topper, you need to leave time for wax to cure properly. Please tell ....

Corolla looks great! Detailing trailer looks good with your logo on it!

Very nice Corolla, I did one of those and the silver turned out great. I like how silver looks when maintained.

I too like the trailer and I really like your logo, it's unique (as it should be).

Thanks for sharing oh and about the sealent include me in the pool as to why you used it after the wax.

thanks for sharing.
