After alot of work this week the mini has finally been winterize. It took a long time but I've very pleased with the results

Wash: Pinnacle body shampoo
Clay: not needed
Polish XMT#2 followed by XMT #1
Protection: Duragloss 601/105, collinite 845
Trim: cleaned with XMT pad cleaner and protected with 303
Windows: stoner
Interior: Pinnacle Vinyl cleaner and Pinnacle Protectant.

I would like to thank everyone at AGO for their help in making sure I did it right this winter. I've learned alot in my short time here and has really improved my detailing methods. My bank account, however, hates you because I've spent over $500 this month alone http://www.northamericanmotoring.com/gallery/data/500/emot-bang.gif

Looks good. All set for winter. The pad cleaner to clean trim was something new to me. I can see where it could work well.

Looks like you winterized your car. That's one of the most durable sealant/wax combos you can use. Very nice!

Looks great! I used the Collinite 845 for winter too. I love how well the water beads up! It is great stuff! Nice job!

Nice work, car looks real crisp. My wife is really in love with Minis, I have to make sure she's not looking over my shoulder right now or she'll be on my case to buy her one.
