First Geek Detail!

Hey all,

First I wanted to say thank you to all that have posted in my noobie threads, was a very big help. Now on to the good stuff...

I have a 2006 Black Mica Mazda 3, and used the following steps on her...

Exterior

Wash - Meg Gold Class with Lowes foam gun and 2 bucket method
Clay - Meg white clay and quick detailer
Polish - XMT 2 on LC orange with the PC
Wax - DP Max Wax (this stuff rocks!! )
Tires/wheel well - WG tire gel, cheap tire foam for wells
Glass - Stoners Invis Glass

Interior

Carpet - vacum only
Doors, Dash, etc - WG Vinyal & Rubber Protect

I didnt use a seal cause I was limited on time, but i will seal it next month after I strip the wax. On to pics...















The flake shot!



Does it meet AG standards??

Sure does, that is one sweet looking Mazda. I like the hood shot, the reflection looks good.

A job well done, thanks for sharing.

Good job. I agree, Max Wax does rock!

How do you like the WG tire dressing? I almost bought some, but Pinnacle was on sale so I opted for that. I really like the Pinnacle Black Oynx.
