2007 Saturn sky First time

Well this is the first time I detail. I want to try it on my dads sky since thats his pride and joy. Started the work at 12 with some energy drinks and started to compound the car. Im kind of dissapointed in the job I did. I couldn't get the scratch out but did get the swirls out. and I also I know that I need to take more pic's.

Process:

*Two bucket method: Filled soapy water with DG 901 and filled my other bucket with water
*Foam gun: filled with DG 901
*Clay with meguairs and ONR as lube
*Entire car was compound with IP
*Entire car was glaze with N.07
*Entire car was seal with NXT liquid wax and was with S100
*Trim got 303 and top got SG
*Tire got Meguairs high tire shine
*Wheelwells got ATS

The paint looks very good. I would try something else on the tires.

So what kind of machine did u use to polish the vehicle... and you did polish the vehicle cause IP isn't a compound. And what kind of pad?

Well he wanted to be the first person around where I live with the saturn sky. Also he was waiting for it ever since he first saw it.
