My neighbor left his new-to-him Porsche Boxster with me a for a little TLC while he was away. Interior just needed to be freshened up a bit, but the exterior needed a good polish. The car showed signs of being detailed not long ago, but the clear bra needed some work and there was no LSP left anywhere.
Please excuse the state of the garage. Prepping for some electrical work that’s coming so that I can finish it off before snow hits. Many more lights coming vs the two normal house lights that currently light the space. A heater is coming with insulation once everything is in place. Sheetrock may need to wait until next year.

Products used
3D BDX on a dry car followed by a rinse and wash
Chemical Guys Mr. Pink
McKees N-914 at Clay lube/Waterless dilution
Mother clay 2.0 (I like this better the more I use it)
HD Polish+
White Lake Country ThinPro foam pads
Griots Leather Care
Collinite 845
Meguiar’s Wheel Brightener
Meguiar’s Super degreaser
Meguiar’s APC
Meguiar’s Glass Cleaner
Meguiar’s Hyper Dressing 1:1 for wheels, 2:1 for wheel wells and other plastics
Conclusion:
Overall, I was happy with the way the car turned out. I found HD Polish+ to be a little difficult to remove. I even tried N914 at panel wipe dilution, which worked, but it was so humid that I could get it to dry easily. The process took me close to 8 hours.
