First off sorry for the poor pic quality, forgot my DSLR memory card when I set out to do this one.......Friend/co-worker recently had a whipple blower installed on his new SS 1LE, he just got the car back a few days ago and wanted attend a local event but wanted to get the car looking like it now performs. Couldn't start till Fri evening after I got off my day job, and the event was Sat mornIng. Since this was a last minute job I had to come up with a strategy with what I had on the shelves, Menzerna 3 in 1 ended up being my polish of choice. Owner will eventually be coming back to get the car coated so I'll do a proper write up then.

Decon
CG Citrus Wash
Cobra Clay Mitt
D114 Clay Lube
GG Iron and Fallout Remover (paint and wheels)

Correction/LSP
Menzerna 3 in 1
LC Force Orange (rear bumper/roof)
LC MF Cutting pads (most panels)

Wheel/Tires
Opti-Seal on wheel faces and barrels
McKees 37 Tire Coating

Horrific amount of brake dust

Main reason owner enlisted my services ....had some on defects that came in the paint from the showroom...

Wow! Great job, I didn't know that menzerna 3 in 1 can give these kind of reflections. Do you know if it can be topped with powerlock?

Thanks!! Yeah, it really finished down well. I have never personally topped it with Powerlock, I have heard of one or two folks doing so without any issues.....

1LE option is great because it only comes with 3 pedals==========
